Comment on LinkedIn opts 100 million users into sharing information with ads

Comments

There would be no outrage if they simply put "we'll share all your stuff any way we want" on page 74 of EULA (if they haven't already).

At least URL for this setting is nice:

https://www.linkedin.com/settings/social-advertising

There are other settings you might want to opt out of:

https://www.linkedin.com/settings/enhanced-advertising

https://www.linkedin.com/settings/data-sharing

Finally I got around to figuring out where they opted me in to receive these weekly digests that started showing up last month.

Thanks for these links. I was only aware of the social advertising one because of twitter last night.

Opted out of the other two as well.
