Features:

  • Option to retrieve headline, subline and handle for each user
  • Option to generate short name versions of users for common names such as Jonathan -> John
  • Clean up steps • Normalises any NFD characters for example ó to o • Removes any none printable ASCII characters • Downloads a wordlist and removes postnominals • Downloads a wordlist and removes honorifics • Removes any data after a comma or curly bracket • Removes the dot that follows a hidden surname • Attempts to identify the first and last name of user • Identifies any common surname prefixes and appends to surname • Converts to lowercase and trims any redundant white space

As the first and last name fields on LinkedIn are free form text fields then there can be any random combination of data in them. Please ensure you check over the exported list as there will be dodgy names still…

Is WeakestLink Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

WeakestLink requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

WeakestLink is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
