Yeah it’s a bit dishonest

Instead of

hidden code searches their computer for installed software

I would say

hidden code searches their browser for installed extensions

It looks like the attack only works on Chrome (or Chrome based browsers).

They have 2 methods for figuring out which extensions are used: asking the browser for files related to each of the 6000+ extensions they scan for, and checking the DOM for injected content

But that doesn’t mean that Firefox couldn’t be targeted in the future.

A good way to protect yourself is to use uBlock Origin or something similar, which will block the collected data from getting sent to LinkedIn
