lol wtf?? They are really covering a lot of bases, I don’t know why but I kinda expected the efforts to influence would stick to gullible Facebook & twitter users, but I guess that’s smart–if someone’s got all their professional info in plain sight no need for expensive 007 type intel gathering. Or something lol

Me too! I feel like LinkedIn is a bit too far and personal? It’s beyond “influence” and disinformation because why else would they use LinkedIn other than to target a person directly?

On the topic of social media…

This reminds me of “our” new policy of asking for social media accounts at border patrol, no credit score yet but it’s along the same lines imo.
