@YKantRachelRead @apicultor ok, perhaps I fell for it too. but I don't see what business linkedin have scanning for 6000 possible chrome extensions linked to the the identity of someone. And if it is illegal under GPRD, it is illegal. So I side with the other comment saying the source is irrelevant (even if it not disinterested)

@tseitr I think that's right. I don't see much merit in Microsoft having exclusive access to a trove of data instead of another parasite. It's not like they respect other sites when scraping the web. I see no merit in allowing Microsoft to scan computers for the privilege. @YKantRachelRead @apicultor
