If you haven't recently been reminded why we should all be using #Mastodon - check out what LinkedIn is up to. https://browsergate.eu

LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer

Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history. Every time any of LinkedIn’s one billion users visits linkedin.com, hidden code searches their computer for installed software, collects the results, and transmits them to LinkedIn’s servers and to third-party companies including an American-Israeli cybersecurity firm. The user is never asked. Never told. LinkedIn’s privacy policy does not mention it. Because LinkedIn knows each user’s real name, employer, and job title, it is not searching anonymous visitors. It is searching identified people at identified companies. Millions of companies. Every day. All over the world.

Das KIT zeigt, wie Hochschulen ins Fediverse kommen: Aus einem starken Mastodon-Profil wurde mit https://social.kit.edu eine eigene Instanz. Vorteile: offen, werbefrei, interoperabel, datenschutzfreundlich und für Wissenschaftskommunikation jenseits von Konzernlogik. Der Aufbau braucht Regeln, Moderation, Rechtssicherheit und langen Atem. Fazit: machbar – und nachahmenswert. Echt starkes Signal!!!
