LinkedIn decided that, at least for this new "feature," that you wouldn't mind. However, if you do, here's a link to a post to tell you how to disable the "feature."

Twitter feed is not available at the moment.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for the link. I understand that LinkedIn has now changed their policy and do not use your information by default. Still, I think it’s good policy to review setting on all social media sites.
