Because your someone's employer doesn't give you the right to OWN their lives.
If employers are free to do random drug testing, why shouldn't they be allowed to install cameras and make sure you don't beat your children? Because if you beat your children you might go to jail and THEN the company would lose money!
People should not have to choose between their right to privacy and a job.
A line must be drawn that protects workers rights to live a fully HUMAN life and not be pawns of corporations. Don't give me this "you agreed when you applied for the job" crap: people don't have a choice about whether to work or not; labor laws must take this into consideration.
