Do they respect my data? Why do they get to track me across sites when I clearly don't want them to but someone can't scrape their data when they don't want them to. Why should big companies get the pass but individuals not? They clearly consider internet traffic fair game and are invasive and abusive about it so it is not only fair to be invasive and abusive back, it is self defense at this point.

They don’t need to track your web browser when they’re owned by Microsoft, because they track every action at a lower level.

You do realize anti-scraping measures are one way of protecting your data too?

Because you signed up to a set of terms and conditions saying LinkedIn can use your data in this way
