The social media lawsuits that I read about mainly involved Facebook and posting of pictures and "thoughts." A company was in a case dealing with an customer who posted angry vents about the company; another was where a Supervisor was fired about posting about dishonesty among employees. People need to realize that social media is truly the best and worst thing that has open in recent years. Many employees will search a person's social media sites in order to get a sense of the person. I think that everyone should be more mindful--that yes--other people will be looking at your post and pictures and basing judgment among you by them. To sue another person over a thought/opinion that was expressed on social media--I think is going a little too far. First Amendment does give us the right to freedom of speech.
