Annemarie Bridy 👻🦇🎃 on Nostr: LinkedIn is now asking users to verify their identity with CLEAR to get more profile ...
LinkedIn is now asking users to verify their identity with CLEAR to get more profile views. I appreciate their need to prevent impersonation and fraud, but CLEAR feels to me like a whole other level of surveillance beyond "we can use your work email address to verify your identity." And because of the connection to TSA, it feels creepily state-adjacent.
