A little silly when the article quotes someone saying that you could find out a person's religion.
I think most of us would clearly be wary of it because you could find out what sort of *porn/sex* I like. I don't care if you know my religion (I'm the spawn of Satan.)
I mean just imagine if some insider dropped images of the city manager dressed up like a sheep.

It's a reference to protected information; employers are prohibited from considering race, religion, sex, age, etc. To ensure they don't, they aren't allowed to solicit such information. I think the main problem was privacy, but from the potential access to information that an employer may not legally use is also problematic.

I don't put my religion on my CV and would not want any prospective employer knowing about it - not because I'm ashamed about it, just that it's private information which isn't relevant to how good (or otherwise) a job I'll do.

That's the point. Giving them your usernames and passwords to places like Facebook, dating sites, etc., would give them a way to find out information they normally wouldn't.
