I haven’t tried to log into my account for a few weeks because LinkedIn is a cesspool. When I logged in just now (with a passkey, btw), it brought me to this page.
I’ve had this account for over a decade and used it to get my current position. I don’t want to use LinkedIn, but it’s pretty much a requirement in my industry.
I’m not sure if I should cave or what. I read the privacy policy for Persona’s ID verification and it states that the data is immediately destroyed after verification, or held for three years.
This shit should be fucking illegal, and yet, in much of the world, it’s being made enforced legislation. Fuck any company and politician that supports, funds, or operates this bullshit.


You’re delusional if you think Liberals will stop web ID. They are the ones implementing it in the UK, Canada, Australia, and EU.
The entire turnkey-totalitarian mass surveillance apparatus America has constructed over the last few decades was expanded throughout Conservative and Liberal majorities. It’s one of the few things they always agreed on, and consistently passed with little debate or fanfare.
There’s a reason the Black Panthers coined the phrase “scratch a Liberal and you’ll find a fascist” several decades ago; they’d already propelled the Nazis to victory in Germany decades before that.
The US Republicans are so bad, people forget that the Democratic party is also pretty shitty. We could have had Sanders as a president in 2016 if the DNC didn’t refuse it and shove Hillary down our throats. The DNC doesn’t want to be very “left”.
We could have had Sanders if people voted for him in the primary but they didn’t.
Most people that only get their news from the big 3 barely knew he existed. He was blackballed by his party. No one would cover him, even when he was the 2nd most popular.
This is an interesting pattern. Two reasonable things to get the upvote, and then a hard turn at the end.
