Sadly, it's increasingly 'standard practice' in HR to do just 
that. Monitor what employees, and potential employees have done 
or made available on the internet.

I don't support that approach, which is exactly why I use Tor.

Now, their attempts are moot, and therefore I am in no way 
supporting those actions.

And so, your comments about 'self-contradictory' are moot also.

In addition, HR data is increasingly becoming a valuable target 
for attack, due to the 'profiles' they keep on people. So now the 
situation gets even worse. Cause not only does HR have this info, 
so will others... eventually.

The only real world option, is to prevent them from gathering 
data on you in the first place.

btw. Some people in my team (those that use D), might have 
contributed to this post, but now, likely will not.
