I see what you are getting at. Do you think it could go a bit overboard though? That it makes people kind of take the law into their own hands?

There's a risk of that, yes. As I said, the details need tweaking. It would be especially helpful for wealthy, powerful, and/or corporate criminals who are probably paying for good private security regardless of their criminal record/sentence or lack thereof.

I do believe that the shame-feeling part of society is generally less likely to commit crimes. That is, it would work on them, but it wouldn't work on someone who does not care what their neighbors think of them.

A lot of companies and businesspeople care what their customers and the general public think, at least.
Details might need tweaking, but a version of this could really work.
