i quite dislike leaks like that, a few days earlier access isn't worth a very rich industry with government connections potentially cracking down hard on torrents or vpns one day

    yep also in this particular case it's just bittersweet that anyone with a say in the IP holders would never touch a video game with a 10ft stick. they don't even know what to do except automatically profit, and that's just going great recently hasn't it ๐Ÿ˜‚

    cool, on another note, do they even have developers these days or is it 100% tasteless hacks who put prompt engineering on their cv to cover the blankness

    I know this might come across as a very impractical expectation but I wanted to hear from people who have a fulfilling career and also a sense for privacy: How did you do it?

    I've recently had trouble finding a new job in the tech sector. So far I've been doing alright without LinkedIn, just directly applying to companies, but it seems less successful now. So I thought what the hell, might have to do this after all. After I've made an account I got quickly banned for logging in once from a VPN connection. Only way to get unbanned is to give my government ID to them - but that really rubs me the wrong way (so many leaks of IDs recently and all).

    I'm remaining banned for the moment, contemplating what impact this might have on my career. It gives me a fair bit of anxiety, considering that my sense of where my boundaries are seems to be deemed unacceptable by the monopoly of international job markets. Should I just give in and send my ID? Am I delusional?

    As always, I appreciate the discourse of this wonderfully decentralized community we have here on lemmy! โ˜บ๏ธ
