A new bill has been proposed by Representative Eliot Engel which would make it illegal for potential employers to acquire job applicants' Facebook passwords. The Social Networking Online Protection Act or "SNOPA" has been introduced to Congress and if the legislation is passed, it would prohibit employers from requiring current or potential employees to hand in their login details the any employer. SNOPA will also effectively make it illegal for employers to make use of content found online to discriminate against potential employees who are looking for a job.
Ubergizmo, Facebook Password Could be Protected with New Bill Proposed in Congress
