Ok,without diving too deep into this,it seems people commenting on this much like the public at large are assuming what you "talk" on the platform or what information you provide is all or most of what they're collecting and correllating.
I disagree with that assumption, what information you provide explicitly will be used in conjuction with infromation you don't explicitly provide. This builds a somewhat precise trail of information to which you have little privy to. Not only that,people who don't use the platform are also targeted as a result of you referncing them on the platform. ML inference aside,a lot is and could be done with what fingerprinting and implicit data collection being done
I believe linkedin scores worse than even facebook for the amount of data they mine and collect. Linkedin,unlike facebook is in a position to shape and impact people's careers and livelihoods so this should not be treated as a minor problem.
This is also why downloading the data google,facebook and the like collect from you means little. I would like to see what correlations and derivations they've presumed based on that dataset!
