Question:

A restaurant employee created a private MySpace page and invited fellow employees to the page for the purpose of sharing work-related frustrations and criticisms of their employer. A manager learned of the page, obtained the password from one of the invited employees, and read the postings. Ultimately, several managers went to the page and read the messages. The employee responsible for the MySpace page was fired. To what extent does an employee have an expectation of privacy in a private MySpace page? Does he have free speech rights to express his opinion to his fellow employees? Did the employer illegally invade his privacy? Is the method the manager used to obtain the password from the employee relevant? In other words, does it make any difference whether he coerced her into giving him the password?
