illegally searching the browser extensions and anything it can find from the browser sandbox. Very different than 'Searching your Computer'
Yeah for I moment I thought LinkedIn was burning some browser sandbox 0day on this.
Extensions exist on my computer and this is searching my computer for them. The title is technically correct by definition.
Title is blantently misleading.
If it's:
It's an illegal search of my computer. The title is correct. That you don't feel as strongly about software liberty and allow definitions to erode over time is your problem.
Sorry, I didn't realize that misleading clickbait post titles was a key cornerstone of software liberty.
Enforcing definitions is part of software liberty. Look at free software vs open source as a very real, very widely impacting example. There’s nothing misleading about the title on a factual basis. If you can’t see that yet I hope one day you will and look back on this comment in a different light.
You honestly think one day I'm going to wake up and think "LinkedIn's website is searching chrome for extensions" is too precise and factual, the right thing to do was to use a headline that would obviously imply to the average person (including average tech user and average free software advocate) that LinkedIn (the website? App? Windows 11 component? Who knows?) was scanning your whole hard drive!
uhhh i mean yeah its on your computer but its within the browser sandbox
Your computer is technically inside your house. Would you title this “Linkedin Is Illegally Searching Your House”?
Not worried about LinkedIn because you don't have one? Try pressing shift-control-alt-windows-L on Windows.

used to be a microsoft easter egg would be like a cool flight simulator hidden inside a spreadsheet program.
Is this different from browser fingerprinting?

Assuming you're logged in to LinkedIn, it ties the fingerprint to your real name.
I got banned from Linkedin for trolling my wife's old boss.
Lmao 😭
I've been accused of not being a real person by freelance clients because I didn't have a LinkedIn or social media presence. I hate that I have it now, and the number one reason I want a job is so I can not be on it anymore.
