Good reasoning here.

Might I add that LinkedIn has implemented the same stalker features that make it just as creepy as online dating websites...

Can you imagine if Facebook had a "who's been viewing your profile" page? It'd be gg.

Not to mention the NSA would be overloaded with 'suspicious activity'.

I was about to post the same thing. I can't believe they get away with having this feature. If I click a Linkedin link on Google, oops I'm logged in, my viewing history is for sale.
