Agreed. I have my facebook locked down pretty well, even for my friends. I've hidden all tagged photos and watch what I post. I'm in the same boat. I'd possibly "friend" someone in HR, if they really thought it was necessary, but I'd never provide my login information. That just seems overboard. |

Never.
Might as well just give them your house keys. |

Yepz.
Told my manager I'm not adding him for obvious reasons. Screw that. They have no business knowing what I do outside of work unles I tell them. |

| If they asked for my UN/PW I'd totally give it to them, along with my bank card and account password. Any company should have access to their potential employees spending habits :rolleyes: |

The more social media gets implemented the more it will be acceptable. Sure the refusal will be there initially, but you'll let your guard down later on. |
Let my guard down? Am I going to give my login details when I least expect it? Pretty sure the answer will always be no...even if they drug me. |

I meant it as most people wouldnt refuse to fight the system. For example, if you added the facebook app on your phone, facebook will take those numbers and post them up online in your account. yes, you have the login for that. but do they have the right to post that personal information online for you to use for your 'contact' list? some people dont even log out of their accounts. what if someone were to take a peek at the screen and see those numbers up?
Also, a lot of people still have private numbers, and make a large effort to keep them private. well by installing that app simply that effort is lost.
is anyone going to retract and fight the privacy system about this? probably not. which leads me to think that ya... people will shrug it off.
google does the same with your mobile contact list. I just found out a month ago. they also scan your emails.... btw. is that too invasive? |

| I created a subgroup on Facebook with all coworkers-managers, so whenever I post something during work hours or something that might stir some , I just exclude that group from the post. Works like a charm. |
