Here's a helpful hint.
Don't put "Outposter" on your resume.

I perform a cursory Google search on anyone I may be interested in interviewing as well.
Last year, I was hiring for a Jr. Technical Writer position. When I performed this search, a few candidates had Websites with writing samples (which is mostly what I expect to find, if anything).
However, one enterprising young candidate forgot to clean her My Space account where she had left up a bit of "creative writing" titled (and I'm paraphrasing from memory) something like "25 Reasons Equestrians Give the Best Head". My Senior writer and I had a great time reading that I must confess (and it was quite funny in some places).
Naturally, he begged me to hire her since, he claimed, "Even I have not heard of #5, #12, and #20"!!!!

Chief Deputy Rusty Thomas defended the practice, saying applicants have a right to refuse. But no one has ever done so. Thomas said that "speaks well of the people we have apply."
No it doesn't you focking moron

I would just tell them I don't have one.
As would I. But I seriously doubt you or I would last very long at any place that would ask for this.
Based on the article, this wouldn't necessarily help since they may be able (depending on how common your name is) to find your profile anyhow, and just not be able to look at it.

Weird how so-called "right to work" laws never seem to cover shit like this.

I don't know why it surprises anyone that companies will do whatever they can get away with.
This.
The only reason companies are doing this is because no court has come out and said they cannot yet. The only reason companies pay a livable wage is because minimum wage laws exist - without such a law, companies would pay $0.02/hour. The only reason companies observe a 40 hour work week is because there are laws about it... and on and on and on.
The only reason companies do ANYTHING except maximize profits at the expense of workers and the environment is because they are forced to by law. If there were no laws about such things companies would all quickly race each other to the lowest common denominator with respect to responsible action and that would become the new standard, and if you tell me you don't believe it, you're either absurdly naive or lying your ass off.

If it was a good job, and I needed it, I would gladly give me FB acct/password
Anyone who thinks facebook is "private" already is kidding themselves. They're basically doing this because then they can actually be upfront about stuff they could've found out anyhow through other means

Anyone who is familiar with my posting is not surprised by my response to this situation.
