Yep. It's also a federal crime for them to log into your acct but the DOJ won't prosecute it. From the article:

"The Department of Justice regards it as a federal crime to enter a social networking site in violation of the terms of service, but during recent congressional testimony, the agency said such violations would not be prosecuted."

Hmm, interesting. I guess I should have read the article.

Why would they need the PW?



It's because they want to log in and look around on your FB profile to ensure that they can see everything, not just what your public-facing account allows. Depending on what they find, they may or may not offer you a job.

I'd ask for the interviewer's password to Facebook, to see if he/she was trustworthy enough to give my password to.

If it was a really good job and I needed it I would totally allow them to see whatever they want in my fb account. that crap isn't "private" anyhow no matter what people think

I'd be offended if they asked, to be honest.

When was the last time you were honest with yourself?
