LinkedIn is preparing to switch on generative-AI training that draws from European members’ data, setting November 3, 2025 as the go-live date. The company says it will rely on “legitimate interests” as its legal basis and will offer an opt-out so members can refuse use of their data for training—promising that private messages are excluded. The change applies across the EU/EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland.

    Such a garbage site and always has been. Prior to microsoft owning them they were a shit show. They should never have recovered from this, but people are stupid.

    After microsoft bought them, they became nothing more than a data mining operation. Which also should have made people avoid them. But again, people are so damn stupid.

    So train AI on these dumbfucks, why not? They are too dumb to walk away.
