I deleted my linkedin account (as much as they would allow, anyway). I visited about twice a year, usually on accident.
Good riddance.
Good thing I haven't visited the site since before the Microslop acquisition then.
All very "secret" and "hidden" in cleartext javascript. These titles need to chill.
Ah yes, who doesn't read through the minified bundles of every page they open. I fucking love reading through megabytes of uglified code!
And your point is what exactly? Nobody does, but it still is not a secret. My point is that any assumption that your extensions are not detected is a delusion, if one wants to put in the effort it is not overly complicated to understand what minified js is doing and one can expect any major social media to do such things.
It is absolutely a secret! Based on the discussions I've seen, many people in the field were quite surprised that this technique works. So just like Meta's recent-ish WebRTC scandal, this was a secret, even if the code always showed what it does.

It is? How are these websites detecting my Firefox extensions?
Isn't it standard for a website to be able to detect browser/extensions?
Funny that the name dropping of Chrome in the link summary implies Firefox users are safe.
No, not really. Unless it's your own extension you're trying to communicate with.
It's like a security guy doing a full body search on everyone entering a club. It's beyond inappropriate.
More like a well-known industry personality assuming consent and feeling you up under the table in public because you wouldn’t be here if you didn’t want that.
Hope the 300 dollar fine hurts

Well, the article does actually state that in the text...
I am linkedout, I don't care anymore.
Linkedln being a walled garden just makes this funnier to me.
