LinkedIN Selling Your Privacy

In a move that has me concerned, LinkedIN has released LinkedIN Sales Navigator, a premium version of the website that let’s you view full profiles of people you are not connected to. Sounds awesome right?

But if you sign up and can see other people’s full profiles, then others can pay and see your profile without your permission. Does this have you concerned? Discuss below.

    I kind of thought the whole point of LinkedIN was to advertise yourself and network for business and jobs? If there’s some information you don’t want people to know, then don’t post it on an internet site.

    You thought … or think that Linked IN has some sort of intention to protect members privacy? What made you think that?

    Seriously…..
