When I was looking for a job the state run employment agency wanted to force me to make a linkedin profile even though I told them that I am being stalked by an ex and generally don’t do social media. They ultimately threatend to cut my aid if I don’t make a profile. A profile on a private website that does not respect user privacy nor data protection laws.
Luckily I found a new position before that fight escalated, but it still infuriates me thinking back to it.
That’s mental
That’s the merger of state and corporate power
Down with Microsoft!
Damn, they all be sucking Orange mushroom. Very sad, but predictable. Open source is they only way to be (as it can get) free, in digital life.
Who goes on LinkedIn to target transgender? Lol. Shouldn’t you just be posting job stuff? It’s not social media my god. Or at least it shouldn’t be
Lot‘s of people are getting stalked on LinkedIn. It’s absolutely social media.
When particular news outlets and social media sites make bogeymen out of one of the smallest groups of people on the planet, consumers of that media will seek out the bogeymen.
who goes to a bar to harass women instead of having a nice drink with your friends? etc
Yeah, in that sense. I can get it. Boils down too…some people are just dicks
I don’t understand posting at all on it except for job openings. honestly its annoying job openings get buried in peoples bullshit.
