You've just created far more financial risk for your company by doing this.
It's flat out illegal, and if you're caught doing this the punishment will probably bankrupt your company.
Further, it's disgusting and any small business owner that does this deserves to have their business destroyed.

For example, we might make a law saying mothers shouldn't leave their children alone at home. Then we could say "You horrible mother, you left your kids alone, you're going to jail". But we are not the ones who have to spend our whole day watching the kids, trapped and exhausted. We should recognize the higher contribution we're asking from the mothers by saying "Unfortunately, for the sake of the children, we have this penalty for having left them alone. We understand that one can be in a rush, so next time we encourage you to team up with other mothers to watch each other's children." For one thing, the harsh reactions keep the people you're regulating from even being able to let you know how hard it is on them.
