But LinkedIn is the one social network many people literally cannot escape to put food on the table. I don't care about how much spying is going on in ESPN. I can ditch it at the shadow of a suspicion. Not so with LinkedIn. This is very alarming, and pretending it's not because everyone else does it sounds disingenuous to me. | ||

You can also just browse LinkedIn with a browser that doesn’t have extensions installed, if privacy is that important to you. Like everyone else on this thread, I’m not condoning it or saying it’s a good thing, but this post is an exaggeration. | ||

That sounds problematic and is only supported by people mindlessly agreeing to it. I know someone who got jobs at google and apple with no linkedin, and he wasn't particularly young. What do you do in the face of it? I say quit entirely. It was an easy decision because I got nothing out of it during the entire time I was on it. | ||
