Ask Slashdot: Companies That Force Employees To Join Social Networks?
First time accepted submitter rubeon writes "Companies can get a lot of mileage out of social networking services from the likes of Google or Facebook. Chat, document collaboration, and video conferencing using services like Google+ Hangouts or Facebook's Skype are seductive additions to an IT arsenal. But a lot of people have privacy concerns about these services, and there's no shortage of horror stories how these sites track and exploit their users' habits. Would you work for a company that forced its employees to join a social network?"
You two are really obsessed with each other.. you should really get a room.
I know what you're thinking: that's stupid.. we're both guys, and I'm not gay.
You're confused about your sexuality, and you're feelings for each other. You're concerned about your repressed latent homosexuality.
But this 2012, and most people are ok with other peoples sexual orientation.
So please, will you two just hook up already? The rest of us are getting tired of this BS.
Why any company would trust sensitive internal information to Google is beyond me.
Why not? They already have it, anyway - I just did a search and found it.
No joke - one place I worked, the best way to find out what was really going on was stick some key executives' names in Google and see what turned up. (No, no criminal records, amazingly enough.)
Tell them you have dissociative identity disorder and if they won't respect that, all of you will file a class action lawsuit.
No, I don't. As long as I've been sexually active, I have compartmentalized information. Among other things, the women I sleep with get to know exactly how I like my balls licked. My mother does not.
I guess some of use are just not as close to our mothers as others.
I was once told that 2 out of every 1 people working at the BBC has a multiple personality disorder
da da da dum indeed.
