so you knew where an alternative source of the same post is, but chose to make that completely unnecessary post about how you don't read articles on LinkedIn, while pretending you haven't read it?
- kissickas 13y agoMaybe he doesn't click linkedin links because they track and report what you've viewed if you're logged in, but once it was on pastebin he was happy to give the original source.
- icebraining 13y agoMaybe he doesn't click linkedin links because they track and report what you've viewed if you're logged in All decent browsers support private tabs/windows nowadays, you can just open the context menu to open the link in one. It'd take less time than writing the post.
- prawks 13y agoI don't believe private browsing masks your IP, and I'm not sure it changes your user agent either. It's very likely LinkedIn can still track your activity if you're browsing in a Private tab.
- icebraining 13y agoEven if they track, they're not going to report it.
- yebyen 13y agoLinkedIn was on HackerNews for doing _just that_ a few weeks ago. That is, associating your IP address with your identity and tracking whose profile you clicked (to report back to them) even when you're not logged in.
