LinkedIn is malware and it's frankly embarrassing that we seem to be stuck with it. It's like a mechanic being stuck with a wrench that doesn't just punch you in the face while using it, it opens your toolbox just to come out and punch you randomly.

You know what's funny, just the other day I tried to do an "export" of my data from my account.
The option I chose was "profile data" because I wanted to get my whole work history/projects/etc. for a new resume.
The export took several hours.
When I finally downloaded it, it included my name, Email, short description, and my Email address...
What do you mean "stuck with it"? I just don't use LinkedIn. Do you need it for job hunting for example?

God I hope you are being funny. Why else would anyone install this crap?
The amount of times I saw a "LinkedIn profile URL" as a required field on job applications outside of LinkedIn is concerning, to say the least.
I think it’s kind of companies to tell you they don’t want applicants.
