I just found out that by default, #LinkedIn sells user data to anyone without anonymizing it, regardless of visibility settings. #Linkedin is owned by #Microsoft.
You can opt out in the privacy settings, but this is something that should be allowed only after opt-in. #GDPR
That forces conscious folks to deliberately put mis information on their LinkedIn profiles... Or just delete the entire thing... Which is counter intuitive to job searching... :( Time for competition #socalledCapitalists #fearcompetition.
@chpietsch @vascorsd That is agains the law. Do file a complaint at your privacy authority.
@AstaMcCarthy @vascorsd I heard there is a research exemption LinkedIn can use as a loophole. #GDPR
@chpietsch I've definitely experienced this =/
@chpietsch this was a good reminder to delete my linkedin account.
