I think you overestimate both the reach and the net effect of this. There are still employers who don't google people before they hire, who will never see this. And there are plenty of people who disclose criminal convictions to potential employers and still manage to get hired.
"Basically ruined his life" is a stretch.

I was just feeling bad for how it might affect his future prospects for work. I think a little more mercy for criminals is a good thing. Norway has a really good criminal justice system that works wonders.
