Dear all,

 I received the following message from a contact and am forwarding for your awareness and due consideration.

 Without attracting too much publicity, LinkedIn has updated their privacy conditions this summer. Without any action from your side, LinkedIn is now permitted to use you name and picture in any of their advertisements.

 Some simple actions to be considered:

 1. Place the cursor on your name at the top right corner of the screen. From the small
 pull down menu that appears, select "settings"
 2. Then click "Account" on the left/bottom
 3. In the column next to Account, select the option "Manage Social Advertising"
 4. Finally un-tick the box "LinkedIn may use my name and photo in social advertising"
 5. and Save

 How to inform your connections? Simple: Via Inbox>Compose message in Linkedin, you can send a message to 50 connections at once. All who will appreciate being informed."
