Facebook passwords - are they up for grabs? Invasion of Privacy?
3/28/2012
At our firm, VSSF, we love employment law. That is, we like when employers screw up by treating their employees wrongfully. Now, I heard that Senators ask feds to probe requests for job applicants' Facebook passwords! What? These 2 U.S. senators are asking the Attorney General to investigate whether employers asking for Facebook passwords during job interviews are violating federal law.
I wonder if this violates privacy rights? The purpose of a password is to create an expectation of privacy.
