Technology@lemmy.world•LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your ComputerEnglish
0·4 months agoFirst comment from the link:
Every time you open LinkedIn in a Chrome-based browser, LinkedIn’s JavaScript executes a silent scan of your installed browser extensions. The scan probes for thousands of specific extensions by ID, collects the results, encrypts them, and transmits them to LinkedIn’s servers.
That is very different from “searches their computer for installed software”
