It's amazing to me the gall of some people in power that they'll want to know everything and if you don't give it to them they'll punish you. I guess we're all just slaves to them and they think we owe them everything.

I imagine in this job market we will only see even more of this, people will be so desperate to get or keep their jobs that they'll bend over whenever they are asked to.

Being born and grew up in the East Block for 18 years I can totally relate to this. There was no privacy what so ever, hell, we didn't even knew existed. But then the VHS was invented and smuggled into the country. The whole world was then revealed to us, but especially America, and the amazement of what real life is in fact (fact at that time) ,the liberties and possibilities the western/capitalist country's enjoy.
Later on we fought for freedom, some paid with their lives for this dream. For us who live today is nothing left to dream of, being born in a nightmare, dreaming of a wonderful world only get back into an even darker nightmare. Faith:1 - us:0 ...hands down.
For me some might find reasons for employers/officials to demand this. To me, are just excuses to rip of your soul. We live in a socio-psychopath world today, and things will get even worse.

creepy indeed

Wow, if only there was some way to stop this.

Or you could just tell them to get fucked. I would LOVE if my employer asked me for this, I would sue their asses so fast.

Never had, never will have, a Facebook page. Just don't see the point in joining something I know will just be a useless waste of my daily life. People I care about know my email, my cell number. Everyone else can kiss my ass.

The Sift is bad enough, thank you very much.
