> There's not a single extensions on that list that doesn't result in someone getting an unsolicited email.

Nimble is just a CRM. Their extension does not crawl for email addresses, as far as I remember. Why does linkedIn need to "protect its users" from it? Isn't it rather to protect itself against the competition?

iMacros is a legit extension. But yeah, I guess there are recruiters using it to spam people.

[eastendguy]

Agree. iMacros is a completely fine macro recorder. Similar extensions like Kantu and Selenium IDE are not in the list.

[disiplus]

well iMacros looks like another scraping tool, while those others look like testing tools that can be used for scraping.

That's a malware, isn't it?

[majewsky]

No idea, but if it is, and this is about protecting users from malicious addons, why did LinkedIn not just report that extension to Google?
