A woman in Delaware filed a complaint against her supervisor because he sent a message to her myspace page. When he was told by his supervisor that he should not be viewing his subordinate’s myspace page he was outraged because myspace is public domain. Can a supervisor be told not to visit the page of a subordinate?
