Did all 7486 William Johnsons on LinkedIn have that sent out to their contacts?

The top William Johnson on my LinkedIn page is black. I wonder if the algorithm cared about the race of the guy in the photo before sending out the mail. In some ways that would be even worse.



I don't remember: they don't ask your race on LI, do they? And let's hope, hope hope that they aren't doing facial analysis of photos for something that is absolutely irrelevant.
