The Chicago Trib had an article a few weeks ago that said 70 percent of employers use social media to screen potential employees. Guess it keeps the PI overhead down..
I've posted enough information on Free Republic alone under SamAdams76 to bring anybody right to my front door. Which is why I'm careful not to make too many enemies!
Now you seem to be more careful than most. I see you don't even list your state on your profile. But I can probably safely narrow you down to the NJ/PA area based on the posts I've seen from you. Close to the Philly metro area, I would guess. I have you pegged as a white male in your 60s (give or take half a decade either way) who is somewhat tech savvy. In fact, you probably had a career in the technology sector. You are definitely careful about how you browse the Internet. Most likely you use a non-standard browser like Pale Moon or Vivaldi. You may even do much of your searching through a non Google search engine (StartPage.com). You are a big fan of classic rock and country music - mostly older country music. You are reliably Republican but may have been a Democrat in your younger days. I'm thinking you maybe voted for Jimmy Carter in 1976. You are probably a practitioner of yoga. You follow George Webb (private investigative reporter) on the Web and likely have a presence on Twitter as well, though you probably have the account protected (where you must accept followers to see your profile). I'm guessing you follow Twitter accounts such as @VachelLindsay; @ThomasWictor and on of our FR favorite @LarrySweickart.
How'd I do?
Nebraska Republican Sen. Ben Sasses brilliant line of questioning exposed some of the problems with handing over these responsibilities to Zuckerburg..... Can you define hate speech? Sasse asked. Zuckerberg admitted that beyond calls for violence, he couldnt come up with a definition of the sort of speech that should be banned by an algorithm.
Say what? Zuck cant define hate speech? Bullhockey. Not for the cameras, he cant. Little lyin POS.
Let me help Zuck with that. Herewith is uber-liberal Facebooks censorship up close....and its not very pretty.
REALITY CHECK: A Michigan House of Representatives and state lottery commissioner submitted his reelection announcement to Facebook........but the Facebook Nazis rejected his ad because it doesnt follow Facebook Advertising Policies. Facebook does not allow ads that contain shocking, disrespectful or sensational content, including ads that depict violence or threats of violence.
So what was the reelections ads content that made Facebook go ballistic?
In its entirety: Im proud to announce my candidacy for State Senate.

hhhhmmmm .... no comment ... are you related to Columbo?
How long ago did you cut your cable TV?
I have no idea what you’re talking about ;-)
I seen Facebook used for screening. It’s amazing. People say they are disabled in the interview and post photos of themselves rock climbing in the same week.
bump for later reading
The Brit tabloids really get into benefit scam reporting. Benefits cheats are fair game over there. Not so much on this side of the pond.
Thank you for the info Garth ...
