    Linkedin isn’t safe for anyone. It’s a vile pit of treachery and villainy. But it’s still better than Facebook.

      It’s actually worse than facebook from a privacy standpoint as you’re supposed to reveal just about every piece of identifiable information about yourself.

    My impression from some of the women in my life is that Linkedin becomes a whack-a-mole game of “creep or contact”. You’re kind of supposed to accept connections with people you don’t know because of professional reasons, but many of them are weirdos, and being accomplished in the same field as yourself is far from a guarantee that they won’t turn out to be gigantic creeeps.

    Man. Fuck LinkedIn and whatever sociatal pressures that made people think it’s even a remotely acceptale platform.

    I’d be surprised if any of this is new and wasn’t a problem from the start but oh my, what a bleak picture
