I don't look at anything totally inappropriate, just news sites and celebrity gossip stuff....and yahooanswers. do you think they know what i'm looking at online? should i be more careful? It's hard to resist...
Answer
Depends on your employer... gossip sites and yahoo answers you can get away with. I would stay off sicial networking sites such as MySpace or Facebook and of course porn or gaming sites. Most companies will ban inappropriate sites so that you can't even acess them. Many companies randomly monitor internet usage so you can be looking at porn for years and never get caught but don't take chances. Depends on what they have set up, it can automatically trigger what you type or what website you access. I would also suggest you don't check your personal e-mail just in case it contains spam or viruses that can spread via your company's network and then you're really in trouble.

Can a gossip site use your photo and say things about you, without permission?

Can a gossip site that covers celebrity and 'local' gossip put a photo of you up and say something about you and let people comment about you as well? For some reason I thought there was a law protecting people from such slander.
Answer
Slander is a type of defamation. Slander is an untruthful oral (spoken) statement about a person that harms the person's reputation or standing in the community. Because slander is a tort (a civil wrong), the injured person can bring a lawsuit against the person who made the false statement. If the statement is made via broadcast media -- for example, over the radio or on TV -- it is considered libel, rather than slander, because the statement has the potential to reach a very wide audience.
