Note that the end result is not the same as what LinkedIn would have built. Perhaps in some ways better and in some ways worse.
E.g. personally I am not comfortable bulk uploading personal data of myself and my network to a third party server.
Yup. But my point is you can build this yourself, FOR yourself. So if you're not comfortable with using this one, you can build one on your own that you can trust (because you built it yourself).
Thats the whole point. In an AI world, you're no longer bound by the limits of what 3rd parties do or don't do, plus or minus some datasets (like in this case, the job postings).
Yep! I agree to the principle - I also would not trust a random third-party app with my personal details. Though as noted in my other comment, this app is mostly client-side (including the CSV and ZIP extraction), except of course for the JSearch calls to find jobs by company name, and the CSV export if you choose to use that.
