What a joke that the courts within our society are so obviously controlled by big business. LinkedIn is essentially asking for legal protection so they can box out competition as they pimp out user data they don't even really own in the first place.
The argument our society should be discussing is that individuals own the underlying data. All previous "user agreements" are null and void. All new user accounts should be bundled like non-fungible tokens, then every piece of data associated with that account can be tracked to compensate that user based on actual impressions. Companies can take their cut, but if a user isn't happy with the setup, they can revoke all access to their own data. Enough of this "you agreed to our service agreement" smoke
and mirror bullshit...that's like saying the water company owns the water itself.

By using said services you have provided your information given the understanding that your information will be used by the companies that provide the services
