Finally facebook has taken a action against the emaployers
who are asking for username and password of employees and job applicants. According
to report interviewers are demanding for id and password of applicants. Although
it is not a new thing that employers are tracking the applicants and employees
activity on social media websites but tracking their information from social
websites which they have shared publicly is restricted. Facebook also replies
that they can look for change in policy or lawsuits to secure emloyers from asking
password.
Facebook takes stands on behalf of its users make them more
secure. No doubt facebook is too serious from the user’s privacy side. They take
action to make users more secure by engaging policy issues and legal action
which also includes shutting down apps that breach their privilages. This
satement is said by chief privacy officer of facebook Erin Egan.
Although, sharing and making the facbook’s user password
sociazing is already a violation term which was already mention in facebook’s
user agreement. To get a job one must
not share their privacy and communication said by facebook. They also insured
that every user of facebook need nothing to worry from privacy side. Your
privacy was not going to revelaed in front of those who don’t know you. Due to
demanding of password for job, facebook has added a statement of right and
responsibilities for sharing. It helps
in prevention of socilizing of facebook’s password.
Member or employer from
protected group on facebook must hire another employer if they don’t do so then
that employer can claim for discrimination.
Right now there is no employers on the list to take legal
action. They are working on making a good protection strategy of their user’s
privacy replied by facebook.
