The push back is coming against HR departments thinking they are entitled to your personal lives.
Ladies, I suggest you read this (language warning) and note his angry tone.
You have the choice of writing off the angry tone as
1. Somebody who obviously has problems
or
2. Realizing you're the one with the problem
Oh, and it isn't just men who are angry, so you just sit and think long and hard what happens to your pool of selection when you decide you're entitled to our personal lives.

Whoops...having an off day. Here's the link for the Bene Gesserit jab at HR ladies.
I agree Flip Facebook!
If any employer asks me for a FB account, I'll whip out my genitals and tell them "...you wanna make sure that I'm a man aswell...well here's my manhood."
Not having a FB profile is 'suspicious'? So not being a sociopathic narcissist makes you "suspicious"...Dear God they should have dropped the bomb on all of us long ago.
The problem is they mesure all things by themselves. They are self promoters (often) and have the time for Facebook in a job that is not overly demanding. Naturaly they tend to recurit people who are like them.
Killed by employment equity (affirmative action to you Americans), methinks. The Bene Gesserit were, of course, all-female, and as we all know, HR is dominated by females, hence the reference.
After all, once the government mandated hiring teh wiminz, they had to go somewhere, lord knows that there weren't and aren't anywhere near enough of them to fill actual useful roles, especially in high tech.
