And are MORE than happy to send the content of their servers to unsolicited, uninvited, anonymous guests on mere request. No-one is forcing them to do so!
- sbarre 9y agoAnd that's exactly LinkedIn's position here. No one should be forcing them to send their content to anyone. They claim they should be allowed to discriminate at their discretion who they respond to, since they own and operate the servers. This "no one is forcing you to send your content" goes both ways.. If one side is going to say they're entitled to receive the content on request, the other side wants to be able to say they're entitled to refuse to answer that request..
