[Avodah] geneivas daas [was: Imposing dress codes on non-Jews]

[Harry Maryles]

The Rambam mentions the prohibition of 
Geneivas Daas twice. (Mechira 18:1 and Deios 2:7) 
In Hilchos Mechira he deals with the impact upon the other and upon him. 
In Hilchos Deios he deals with the ethics of anyone guilty of it and the spiritual "cancer of deceit" . 
The Rambam also says (G'eneiva 1:1) that G'neivas Akum is worse than Gezel Akum presumbaly because of the added deceit. 
Likewise with Gneivas Daas (Mechira 18:1)
