This situation kind of falls into a grey area. The code in question is running locally in the web browser, most likely whether you have an account or not. If someone didn't create an account then they couldn't have agreed to allow this and most likely wouldn't have even been aware of this intrusive data mining script running in their browser. If there's nothing surreptitious or suspect about the code in question, why all the obfuscation and oddly specific legal clauses against "reverse engineering" LinkedIn's "source code", i.e. the script that's now running on my computer and/or device without my permission or knowledge. This all seems done in bad faith and exceeds a reasonable protection of a businesses intellectual property. I find it disconcerting that major corporations like LinkedIn get away with things that could have major legal repercussions if you or I did them.
