今天在Guardian上面有一篇新聞，說是一個在waterstone上班的員工因為在自己的blog上發表他對工作的怨言而被開除了。最近這樣的事似乎越來越多。
有個Gurdian的員工，Simon Waldman，在一封給同事的信中對這件事的看法是(這段話是從這篇文章引來的)。：
My view is pretty simple - there are two things that staff shouldn't do when blogging (and I include myself in this): project the company in a bad light or give away confidential information. There's nothing new there. They are pretty standard - and I'd hope clearly understood - conditions of employment. What is new is that, given the characteristics of the net (instant/global/permanent), both the good and harm that can potentially be done to a company by staff blogging is exponentially greater than anything that has gone before.
mn，這兩件事不管是誰、在什麼位置上作，應該都會有大麻煩吧。講白點，這世界才沒有公私領域的區別呢。
不過，現在讓我比較感興趣的是這些架設自己blog的記者：如果你們在報紙何blog上面所呈現出來的「觀點」不一致的話，我應該相信哪一個呢？你們會為哪一個言論負責呢？甚至，像我這種喜歡大放厥詞的小峱種，到底有沒有為自己言論負責的勇氣與認知呢？在我們大談公民新聞之前，恐怕這是一個最基本的問題吧(charlesc那裡有一篇相關的新聞)。
