We'd like to share a tip from Counterintuity about updating your privacy settings against allowing LinkedIn to use your name and photo in third-party advertising that appears on the social network. Counterintuity tells us how to opt out:

On your LinkedIn home page, click on your name in the upper right hand corner of the page.

A drop down menu will appear with two options: settings and sign out.

Choose settings.

On the settings page, click on Account at the lower left of the page.

The box adjacent to the Account option will display a number of choices organized into groups -- Privacy Controls, Settings, Email & Password and Helpful Links.

Under the Privacy Controls group, click Manage Social Advertising.

That will display a box that allows you to turn off the advertising feature.

Thanks Counterintuity (www.counterintuity.com)!
