I think everybody's said what there is to say here, I'll just try to end my part by saying that an organization should be able to exert control over your actions when you are on their time or their property. That goes for schools, work, whatever but once you are on your time and away from their property they shouldn't be able to stick their nose into your business.
People bring up that there is no law supporting it, so fucking what! Civil liberties and privacy laws are usually behind the times. The reason why they are even put in place is because people's rights were being exploited, otherwise there's no fucking reason to have the law in the first place.
Someone listed a university that had all sorts of crazy rules to follow. However crazy these rules were, most of them related to conduct and actions by students while on campus. Those rules are fine with me but if the student is off campus those rules should not apply. The same goes for employers.
We've allowed corporations go way too far into our personal lives. We need to strike back and tell them that they aren't going to do that any more. I could also throw HOA's into this arguement, but that's an thread to itself.
