I heard the urinals at Facebook have a sheet at eye-level where the week's "metric-to-hit" is posted.

Methods like this seem to be effective, but creepy and invasive.

That can become common at many larger tech cos. Usually its about some random technical fact, like how to write a better test or whatever else. It's community driven at about the sophistication level of a community newsletter.
The urinals at the rest stops among the highways here have sheets at eye-level telling people not to drive when they're too tired or drunk. Is that creepy and invasive?
I've been in the Facebook office and it's true that they have information posted above the urinals. Didn't really read it though.
