Kim Symansky, Olathe, Kansas of "Deaf Mom3" vlogger expressed such concerns about many state and municipal employees within many residential schools of the deaf being forbidden from blogging and vlogging off-duty premises.
There are several organizations and legal experts helping out bloggers/vloggers with their own constitutional rights to express themselves like the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). Legal guides for bloggers and vloggers are included in this website and other websites devoted to the freedom of expression and the speech.
More and more municipal governments and educational institutions forbade their own employees from having their own blogs/vlogs outside the employment premises due to fear about privacy issues, ex. students.
California is only the U.S. state with protections for people from getting fired, demoted, reprisal and suspended in any ways.
State and municipal employees ought to check out with their unions and employment guidelines and employment attorneys. They could blog anonymously without anyone find out the real identity of individual(s) involved.
Hopefully that will be very reassuring and helpful for would-be deaf bloggers/vloggers, who happen to be employed within public sectors.
Freedom of expression and the speech should prevail within all of us from tyranny, fear and condemnation.
ASLize yours,
