LinkedIn users are showing concern today as it comes to light that the business network will access a user’s Gmail contacts if the user has a Gmail session and a LinkedIn session open in the same browser – and LinkedIn has confirmed that there is currently no way to turn off what it refers to as the ‘auto-authorization’ that lets this poaching occur. https://thestack.com/security/2016/10/06/linkedin-accesses-gmail-contacts-via-auto-authorization/
That one made me laugh. Of course people that value their privacy are not signed in their email while browsing a net and are never signed in two separate accounts in one browser at the same time.
What the hell, I didn't even know that this was possible? BTW, some of you may find this interesting: https://medium.com/@SamiHonkonen/my...y-40967ed72903?source=user_profile---------3-
