The U.S. Department of Justice and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission already are investigating whether federal law already prohibits employers to force job applicants to hand over their Facebook passwords . Now Illinois has joined the state of Maryland in officially making it illegal for a boss to ask job applicants or employees rent to own cars in new york city for passwords to any social media sites. Gov. Pat Quinn Wednesday signed what has become known as the "Facebook bill." It goes into effect Jan. 1. Employers who break the new law can end up in court, with fines starting at $200. What is still allowed: Asking for a job applicant or employee's user name to review public posts. "It's important to understand that even though we live in an information world, a very fast-paced world where we can get information in split-seconds, there's some information… that belongs just to the person," Quinn says . "If they want to share it, that's rent to own cars in new york city their business, but privacy is a fundamental right." California rent to own cars in new york city is close to enacting its own password law; Washington, Delaware and New Jersey also are considering it. In April, Maryland became the first state to adopt legislation on the issue—perhaps not surprising, since a case there helped give the issue visibility. In 2011, the American Civil Liberties Union wrote a letter condemning the Maryland Division of Corrections for requesting a password from an applicant during a job interview. Earlier this year, Facebook's chief privacy rent to own cars in new york city officer Erin Egan posted a note on the site warning employers that requesting rent to own cars in new york city passwords is an invasion of privacy that opens companies to legal liabilities. The world's largest social network also threatened legal action. Egan writes: "We'll take action to protect the privacy and security of our users, whether by engaging policymakers or, where appropriate, by initiating legal action, including by shutting down applications that abuse their privileges." She said the company had seen a "distressing increase" of reports of employers attempting to access user accounts. "The most alarming of these practices is the reported incidences of employers asking prospective or actual employees to reveal their passwords," she says.
