Ha, I would hardly call it being a victim. People just want to make sure they are hiring someone decent for the job.

They do all the time. Google your name to make sure you have good stuff under your name.

They can and do.

The internet is not exculsive to you kids. Most people with functioning brain capacity can use it.
Makes you think twice about posting all those kissy faces, doesn't it?

I guess. But what if your page is private??
- Hey Lucy .........How you doing? ; )

A co-worker of mine got busted for calling in sick and then posting pics of her out dancing the night away and drinking.

The internet is public property. They are absolutely entitled to look at these pages. There's a reason why it's called the world wide web.

Of course, it's public information. What do you mean "victim" of this?! Don't put it on your FB or MS if you don't want people to know.
Jeeeez.

They can, it depends on the employer.
