LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer

LinkedIn is using invasive techniques to fingerprint your browser. Together with its understanding of your identity and professional history, it has the ingredients for an incredibly detailed profile.

@ben So I saw a post from LinkedIn about it and it's arguably better/not better. They are looking for content scrapers to block to protect your privacy... sorry, their monopoly moat.
@ben I think it's really important though to remind people that if your browser extensions are numerous enough to be a fingerprinting vector, you have a bigger problem, because browser extensions completely undermine the Internet's security model and if you have more than like two you are hosed.
