Is LinkedIn Listening In?

[mkarliner]

Are you using the LinkedIn app?

Maybe you should check what permissions it has.

I did and saw that it had access to my microphone. Why?

You can send voice memos in chat. I use it when I'm on the move.

It is in beta, but I think they also have video uploading, which probably means recording audio and video.

They have a rather excessive amount of permissions IMHO
