@donhawkins I am happy that I did not like LinkedIn's closed nature from the start, so I have never registered, even though the elites of our university suggested that all teachers in the Open Informatics program should join their LinkedIn group. I am a long-time registered user on OpenHub and even GitHub, which has been bought by Microsoft as well. And I login (almost one year already) from my GNU/Linux system to educational sites which we build for students and local git services through Microsoft Entra ID due to decisions of our Microsoft-favoring university's central IT department. So each day there is a risk that somebody from US intelligence decides to impersonate me in study systems or grab all mine, our researchers and students data, or deny us access to our systems. Big shame to every IT person who pushes this direction at our university and elsewhere. It seems that this is not enough and Chat Control law will push us all to Peter Thiel's Palantir and Persona forcibly.
