Re: Re: LinkedIn

It was reported to me by LifeLock, the identity protection service. (I 
am a paid member.)

I don't know where to find this information outside of this service.  
Past experience shows that these kinds of issues take months, sometimes 
years to become public.  A great example is last year's Equifax hack.  
However, it would seem that LifeLock would have a huge financial 
exposure if they published libelous or slanderous warnings.

Just to be clear:  I have learned this information though LifeLock. I 
have no confirmation from LinkedIn, but I have decided to be safe and 
leave that forum.  I have been an online retailer of musical gear for 
more than 10 years, and many of my customers belong to one or more of 
the three forums that I posted to today.  I wasn't trying to sound an 
alarm, but to pass on information that seemed reasonably valid, and to 
explain my disappearance from LinkedIn.

Forum members should do their own research, and draw their own 
conclusions about the forums and services that they subscribe to.
