Last night I finally deleted my #LinkedIn account. It was last #BigTech owned service I used (and rarely even log in last two years).
So am I fully #corpfree now? :blobcattilt:
It was also ethical matter for me, I didn't want to deal with #Microsoft, so morally bankrupt corporation, in any way. Both for data stealing, #privacy violations and disrespect for users and for compliance with authoritarian governments and creating #surveillance technologies for oppression.
Yes, I wrote this in form as a reason, in more detailed way, until I used character limit.
Now I feel... More coherent? And it's good feeling.
@madargon Quite simply, well done! I haven't used LinkedIn for years but I'm on a similar journey to fully remove myself from Big Tech and to fully embrace Free and Open Source Software.
LinkedIn is chock-full of fraudsters... offering phony jobs if you'll give them all of your personal information (DOB, SS#, PWs. security question answers for your PWs. pictures of yourself, etc, etc.
