I find having the list in full is great, because they need to be named and shamed, too. Each and every one of them deserves a negative business impact for signing it.

Obviously from their perspective they'd have a greater negative business impact from not signing it.

only if the company incorrectly assume that their signing will be overlooked by most of their customers.

If a big fuss was made about such problems, they might chagne their tune.
