       Every time you visit LinkedIn in Chrome, a hidden routine silently probes your browser for more than 6,000 installed extensions, collects 48 hardware and software characteristics about your device, encrypts the resulting fingerprint, and attaches it to every API request you make during your session. https://thenextweb.com/news/linkedin-browsergate-extension-scanning-privacy-fingerprint

       @Sustainable2050 I’ve told many, many people over many years that I’m not on LinkedIn specifically because it’s a scam site that no self-respecting security aware person would ever use or encourage anyone else to use.Perhaps now they’ll understand what I was talking about.
