LinkedIn silently probes for 2,953 Chrome extensions on every page load.
LinkedIn silently probes for 2,953 Chrome extensions on every page load.
As far as I can see Firefox is not affected by this as they are using random UUIDs for extensions on each startup and this tracks Chrome package IDs that are static.
Does the script attempt to run though? If linkedin runs this and other scripts it would explain why the site is so bloated.
Not sure, sorry.
