OH man, that exterpt was awesome- I seriously don't blame people for screening social networks for the kinds of people they are. But I think that the man who reacted to the article was a little unprofesional as well. I think screening to all extents is a great way to save time. Do a social network screen, a background check and any kind of check you can. HAHA!

Technology is definitely part of the issue - it takes times for laws to catch up to technology. I agree that employee privacy rights are declining.

We all have moments (must we air them); however, I question a "boss" who feels the need to hunt down employees and essentially perform internet stalking. To the boos- just grow up already and learn how to be a better communicator- if you aren't approachable, how can your employees thrive? And the the employee- learn some discretion- the days of "Big Brother Watching" are upon us, make yourself beyond reproach and kvetch with your friends over a beer, not the internet.

Maybe there could be a bit of a wake up call as to how bad an environment his workplace has obviously become, instead of firing her for calling him a "wanker".
