LinkedIn Privacy Issue: A Button You May Want to Uncheck August 11, 2011?Kurt Scholle Comments: LinkedIn is taking cues from Facebook with a new privacy concern. They now have a default setting that allows them to use your picture and name in advertising. I think this should default to off, but LinkedIn doesn't. Heres how to manually turn it off with this LinkedIn privacy tip: 1) Click on your name on your LinkedIn homepage. (Its in the upper right corner of the page.) 2) On the drop-down menu, select 'Settings'. 3) From the Settings page, click 'Account'. 3. In the column next to Account, click 'Manage Social Advertising' (Lower left of page) 4. De-select the box next to 'LinkedIn may use my name, photo in social advertising'. Please share this link with others. -- Rich Greenberg Sarasota, FL, USA richgr atsign panix.com + 1 941 378 2097 Eastern time. N6LRT I speak for myself & my dogs only.
