CISPA: Employees Set To Be Forced To Give Bosses Their Facebook PASSWORDS

:iamsam:

Then soon the government would be abolished and replaced.

There would be mass strikes across the country in ALL companies.

I disagree. The sheep will follow. They always do.

I would hope so, but I fear the sheep that say "Oh come on if you don't have anything to hide, what's the big deal"

If it passes in Canada I will delete so many things from my fagbook account

I don't have a Facebook account, I shun social media like the plague. So, how can they tell you have an account?

Isn't that a no-brainer? And take it one step further, I would never be able to work for a company that thought it was okay to ask for it. How could you take them seriously, and how could you take your coworkers seriously knowing that they went along with it?

I barely have an account, it's just to follow a couple of bands and one out of town friend, I could easily live without it but it's the principle of the thing!

Also, if I were facebook, I would (try to) sue the pants of the government. This can't be good for their shareholders.

Just for the reason that everyone here is stating..."I would just delete my facebook"

Groupie! LoL

Well they will be suspicious of you if you don't ,after all everyone has one so if you don't maybe you got something to hide? So maybe you will be fired and not hired to begin with and ostracized. Facebook may become something bigger than we imagined in the Brave New World dystopic future.

A lot of companies demand that you submit your resume through facebook. Not having a facebool would be like not having a phone.

Many companies already want to know your page. If you don't have one, they WILL look at you weird if you're under 30.

Solution: Make a facebook, but never use it. Or better yet, make a Linkedin account which actually is made for business connections, and could lead to better jobs.

I have a job which is very secure, so that's not a worry.

And I am a ways over 30, so I don't think people will believe it's weird that I don't have an account.

If necessary to do so, people could open up an account and just put the very minimum on there and never use it. They may be able to force you to have an account, but they can't make you use it.

LOL - I don't have a cell phone either.

Having to do just that to get by is insane to me. "Just make one and never use it" No! Don't conform to this insanity!!

Something to hide? No. Maybe we just don't give a crap about social networking. I'd rather read threads on GLP than post a bunch of stupid stuff about myself on facebook. I like my privacy.

The system has enslaved humanity. People are losing their humanity by abiding to the system's master/slave rules.

Break out now while you can.

Since there are so many online accounts one could have. Maybe they will just make some new agency that keeps track of your accounts. Just to make this "easier" on employers. That way they just say we hired so and so, the govt just sends over a list of everything they are allowed to have access to. Every account associated with your home IP address or something like that. I mean these employers don't want to have to worry if you're some crazy conspiracy person with a GLP account LOL That could damage the company image. Scary stuff. Slippery slope!!

They already run credit reports on people. If yours is low, you don't get hired.

I am sure they are all busy trying to find ways to gather health information. Not only yours, but your mom and dad's and others in your family. Maybe you, too, will get cancer ...

I don't like social media, thus I don't have one. I DO have a linked-in though, but I barely use it. Not because I'm trying to hide anything, but because I literally can't get into the mindset of updating social media (linked-in) all the time.

Social media to me, is the exact opposite of being...SOCIAL. Technology like FB has trained our generation that if you want to talk to someone in THE SAME ROOM, just say it over txt or facebook, and that is disgusting. I still believe in talking face-to-face, sort of an HONOR thing as well as a body-language thing.

People also forget that FB is a COMPANY. And every company has its price. If FB is not using profiles for evil, I'm sure the company that eventually buys their servers will.

And I bet FB and Trapwire are linked pretty well.

But besides that, it's just stupid. Stupid and lazy. And I'm a pretty lazy person.

It doesn't have to make sense to you, it has to make sense to your owners, get it?

That's screwed up too.

my poor interview skills will kill any chance of a job long before it comes to a facebook password.

Pretty soon they'll have a team come to your house if your a potential employee, and do a search in all your drawers, even the panty drawer!

I think I realized from a link posted here that I am not supposed to bring up the fact that I have school age kids when job hunting. It apparently makes you less desirable. You won't slave away for the system because your loyalties are divided.

Thinking back on it, I think I lost at least one job opportunity by mentioning I had kids. I could see a shift in the interviewer (childless woman) when I mentioned it. I googled her after not getting the job and got info on her ... Guess that was a lost opportunity, but I'm not crying.

Unless it's for public office, no business has the ethical right to do that.

I would never work for someone who requested such information.

My personal life is my personal life.

My profession life is my professional life.

Keep the two separate.

I only use fb to dessiminate truth. I never even read other people's comments on my posts. The fuktard sheep just piss me off with their sheep shit.

I'll close my account someday soon.

Isn't it weird that we have to go to UK news to find an article bringing attention to this??!!
