Just a note, the whole "it's 'nobodies business/rude to ask' what someones income is." is a successfully forced part of modern etiquette that exists to make employees have less bargaining power in negotiations with their employer. If all co-workers know what they are all paid they'll know if they are being fucked over. When talking about pay is a social taboo, as is currently the case, it puts you and your colleagues in a place where "willful" ignorance allows you to be taken advantage of. Also, unions are good and fuck bosses.
That said, I personally think it would probably be better if this information were mostly shared between co-workers/people in the same business, not strangers online, unless anonymized.
