House Shoots Down Legislation That Would Have Stopped Employers From Demanding Your Facebook Password

Well, that didn't take long. A proposed Facebook user protection amendment introduced yesterday in the U.S. House of Representatives has already been shot down. The legislation, offered by?Democratic Congressman Ed Perlmutter, would have added new restrictions to FCC rules that would have prohibited employers from demanding workers' social networking usernames and passwords. The final vote was 236 to 184, with only one House Republican voting in support of the changes.
