Forced? Facebook still is creepy and so are web analytics. Why do you think so many people have resorted to ad blockers? I find it amusing that LinkedIn was picked as a platform to claim the non-creepiness of something.

It's creepy because we value our privacy, and companies value eroding it to sell us more advertisements.
