It sucks, but maybe if people actually read and understand the terms and conditions of every website they join, they would understand that it's a bad idea to put too much personal information out there like that.

this is why i refuse to join any social networking sights...other than the fact that i don't want most of the motherfuckers i went to high school with finding and contacting me.

Oh brother. Here's an idea, don't put crap like that on the internet. Despite what one might think, nothing is private on the internet. If you don't want anyone to see you doing something, don't do it.
I don't agree with facebook giving up the info but lets not say the users are not without fault either.

This comment pretty much summs up my opinion on the subject.

Well, to add, why in the world people put up personal information and pictures of themselves is beyond me.

Only thing I use myspace/facebook for is to "borrow" chicks pictures to set-up fake "escort" adds linking back to their myspace/facebook page. Not really. But it sure sounds like fun.

That's what we are teaching our kids. The internet is public domain, nothing is private, I don't care how many passwords you have !

What was on their that was so bad?

I thought the article made it sound like it was just pictures of him with his AR and the employer took that to be a threat to safety.

That would be no different than everyone at the group shoot being fired.
