LinkedIn will share your suspected phone number with recruiters even when no phone number is used (2fa/ app). Opt out in "Visibility settings" by changing "discovery via phone number" to Nobody.

    I’m curious about something. When I was job hunting a few years back, everyone and their mother kept pestering me to get a LinkedIn account. I felt like I was a crazy person, because I seemed to have been the only one who remembered or cared about the 2012 leak. Was this the case for anyone else?
