No, but I guess it's up to them how they behave.

it is common practice now for them to do so , many young people place pictures of themselves doing actions they now regret , but it is to late .(" sorry you are not suitable for the job we had in mind for you" .)

No. BTW... this really is not an ETIQUETTE question... but thanks for asking!
Have a polite day.
Etiquette takes over where laws end.

Any company worth being employed by would definitely consider a résumé as part of the recruitment process. They might use it to get the word out about vacancies, to attract a wide range of applicants, but they shouldn't actually do any hiring through it.
