Facebook: Legal action against employers asking for your password | ZDNet

In a rare show of respect for its users, Facebook is directing prospective employers to consider the legality of soliciting a user’s network password or face possible legal action by the social networking giant itself. This is a most welcome position for them to take, as inspection and demands by interviewers to see the contents of a prospective employee are becoming rampant. This is a start - for Facebook to show true respect for its users they must refuse to collaborate with regimes around the world in acts of tyrrany, including handing the information of its users over to repressive governments so that they can be imprisoned, tortured and murdered. http://www.zdnet.com/blog/facebook/facebook-legal-action-against-employers-asking-for-your-password/10768
