Could you check a sentece?

People would not prefer being known that they've not done the right thing.


I think the above sentence seems to be odd and grammatically unnatural.


If I correct the sentence like this, does it look natural?


People don't want it known that they've not done the right thing.


If unnatural, tell me why please.


thanks in advance.
