Do you think your employer monitors your Facebook account?
I know mine does... one example of how closely we are monitored is:
A colleague just got home one Sunday evening and decided to check his Facebook account. He noticed a friend request from a lady and just accepted and went on with his business.
The following Monday morning, just as he was about to get settled at his desk, he was approached by 2 people of our Forensics department and a security officer and was requested to accompany them to the Forensics department floor.
He was questioned there for over an hour before he was allowed to return to his desk.
I asked him what that was all about and he explained that the lady he accepted a friend request on Facebook from, was linked to a fraud syndicate and because he got linked to her, they had to investigate how involved he was (if he was).... no check this out...
The Forensics department presented him with print outs of his FB contact... but also his WHATSAPP contacts AND his BBM contacts (at the time he was using a Blackberry)...
Now THAT is how closely we get monitored at work 馃憖
