State of Maryland demands prison guard job applicant’s social networking login information and reads his posts and messages.

This goes beyond being careful, which is wise, to being creepy. The State of Maryland is confusing itself with the TSA.

The ACLU has more details, plus a petition to the Secretary of Public Safety of Maryland for you to sign.

Addendum, the Next Day:

The policy has been suspended for 45 days pending review.

This website does not track you.

It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.

Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.

I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.

Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).

I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.
