This is MobileRead. How could you not know it would veer off into an off-topic debate??
Regarding your acquaintance's situation - in this case, I would agree with anamardoll. The employer should not have been allowed to terminate her employment.
If she was flaunting her violation of the rules, or even if the photos were on her own FB account, then it would make sense. The employer could argue that she was 'promoting' her behaviour.
But if it was on someone else's account, then an argument could be made that the employer overreacted. It's one thing to control your information, but how can one control how their information is used by others?
