The Secret HR Director: Show me the social media

So the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) said a firm that read a worker's Yahoo Messenger chats, sent while he was at work, was within its rights. Judges said he had breached the company's rules and that his employer had a right to check on his activities. Mr Barbulescu was dismissed because, although it was his employer who had asked him to set up the Yahoo Messenger account to respond to client enquiries, he had used the account to send personal emails to his fiancée and brother. The employer had monitored the account, and found the evidence to present to him.
