This is not only a PR disaster waiting to happen but probably illegal in most jurisdictions.

Neither of which are arguments against doing it.
With your logic, ending slavery in a time when it was legal, would be a PR disaster, and illegal in most jurisdictions.
Oh wait... It may even lead to a civil war. Oh wait... That has happened... Oh wait... It was actually a good thing!
That's how progress gets made - by changing existing norms and laws because they suck. Recruiting AND job searching at this moment clearly sucks. Which's not to say blacklisting is THE solution. It's A solution, which's a lot better than nothing, at least it gets the conversation going.

Ending slavery didn't cause the Civil War, the Civil War made it politically possible to end slavery.
Not the ones you 'don't like' - the ones that don't even make sense.
That process of filtering out folks using the blacklist should be automated and the blacklist should be public.
I wonder if that'd make recruiting jobs almost pointless in a large number of cases however. It sure would make one think twice about spam-applying, knowing you might get blacklisted for spam.
