Do they respect my data? Why do they get to track me across sites when I clearly don't want them to but someone can't scrape their data when they don't want them to. Why should big companies get the pass but individuals not? They clearly consider internet traffic fair game and are invasive and abusive about it so it is not only fair to be invasive and abusive back, it is self defense at this point.

They don’t need to track your web browser when they’re owned by Microsoft, because they track every action at a lower level.

Weird, I don't use Windows as an OS but have linkedin. I'd believe the concern and disregard of Linkedin's concern is fair game.

What lower level? Microsoft owns internet?

		The operating system. For example see the Windows 11 screenshot debacle/scandal.

Because you signed up to a set of terms and conditions saying LinkedIn can use your data in this way

		I didn't want the web to turn into monolithic platforms. I abhor this status quo. You cannot function without these enterprises, but that doesn't mean they're ideal or even ethical. Microsoft wins because of network effects. It's impossible to compete. So I think it should be allowed to assail their monopoly here by any means. It's maximally fair for consumers and for free markets. Ideally capitalism remains cutthroat and impossible to grow into undislodgeable titans. Even more ideally, this would become a distributed protocol rather than a privately owned and guarded database.
