Assemblymember Nora Campos from Democrat Party which representing a district in San Jose area was the happiest person in the California State Assembly on May 10. Campos, an alumnus of the San Francisco State University, authored the bill called “AB 1844” and has passed the state assembly unanimously by a 73-0 vote. The bill is now going to the state senate and then waiting for a signature from the Governor of the largest state in America.
AB 1844 was first introduced to the California State Assembly in February. The bill is set to prohibit employers from demanding their employees or future employees to show their social-media accounts which include usernames and passwords. With the increasing use of social networking such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google Plus, some employees were suspended due to their social media activities. At the same time some supervisors have asked their staffs to provide access to their Facebook accounts due to a post or a photo they have posted.

This is good news! I just can't seem to find the need to provide your username and password to your employers! It's employee's prerogative to have their privacy. A big thanks to Ms. Nora Campos for this and of course to the author of this post because you made me happy. :) Keep writing good stuff!
