Surprised no one has yet mentioned that this is probably an attempt to neuter Glassdoor. LinkedIn makes money by monopolizing recruiter time, taking money for job posts, etc. Glassdoor is a threat to that, and the single unique benefit Glassdoor offers is a salary estimate.

I don't really see this as a fundamental shift in anything, just an attempt to tack on a competitor's featureset.

Yey! I can now go to Linkedin for the mean average of some pseudo-random numbers, cough sorry I meant salary information.
