To all of you who still use Facebook
13 years ago
General
I haven't been using Facebook ever since NDAA passed, so I could care less, but I figured I would pass this along to anyone else who still does.
It is now LEGAL in the US for employers to require you to relinquish your Facebook account login information on grounds you may be hiding something from your employer. If you fail to do so upon request, it is also legal for them to refuse you employment. In an already crappy economy, this is terrible. Screwed financially if you don't do it, and personally violated if you do.
Supposedly, Facebook, Inc is fighting back on this, because it could easily destroy their entire company. I won't lie, I'd be mad as hell too. If you still use Facebook, I would suggest supporting your host and work on getting this law repealed. Many companies haven't caught on to this being legal yet, but a large number have, and most of them are making good(evil?) use of it.
There is no freedom in this country.
