@Tutanota

I opted out...

Out of LinkedIn entirely.

They've been πŸ’©πŸ’© for quite a while, this is emphatically a bridge too far.

Fuck. Right. Off.

@Tutanota As it seems, you have to go back more than once, as I seem to remember to have it switched off, and today it was switched on again. I used to be an avid poster on LI but I was paying a lot, was swamped with ads on my FYP, and was only getting connection-requests by people wanting to sell me shit. I have yet to get anything off of LinkedIn, of which I am a patron since a decade (or more?)
@Tutanota done, thanks for heads up.
@Tutanota it should.not be legal to make this #OptOut but rather #Microsoft should be mandated to make this an explicit #OptIn instead.
@Tutanota question: If our account was deactivated "specifically stating the platforms aggressive AI push as the reason," will those account's data also be opted in?
@Tutanota Even though users have switched this off are we sure that Microsoft will honour it?
@Tutanota what happens on nov3? You cant opt out anymore?
@Tutanota maybe we should all post how great privacy preserving software is - should their LLMs train on THAT!
@Tutanota thanks! This was very helpful

@Tutanota

This is also for citizens of the EU. Also, just for them doing this, I just ended my account there. It has absolutely no value.

@Tutanota How do you even check settings on LinkedIn??? I've clicked on everything.

@Tutanota Like others here I doubt it will not push it into AI anyway probably if your data is shared with anyone in your network that has AI eneabled (like someone that died or retired), then it will just steal your data true that profile. But anyway my linkdin is just public data. I do not post anything there that I do not want to end up on the internet. So I really don't care.
I'd love to move that info to my own website, but sadly it is impossible to get any reach with my own website.
