How do employers find a way to read your emails?

[c0nfuted]

The law says they have a right to monitor everything you do at work, as long as they follow certain rules (such as telling you they monitor email at work):

Facebook doesn't have a lot of "privacy" anymore, as this time line shows

Your boss or company can use software that "watches" you on Facebook:

And Twitter:

You might consider using this to check your privacy settings - it still can't prevent anything Facebook decides on the spur of the moment to make public, but it's better than nothing:

Ain't the Internet fun???

EDIT: If you're personal email is on, say Yahoo mail, and you read it at work - they can monitor you. If you get it from home using a company-provided laptop, they can monitor you. If you use your OWN computer at home (or coffee shop, or bar, or library, etc), they can't monitor you.
