I also don't see him saying "ain't our problem" anywhere.
And not only the post but the linked privacy policy consist entirely of weasel language. eg:
Do you store my email or my password?
LinkedIn servers will temporarily cache information in order to provide you
with the fastest service possible. Here are the full details:
During installation, the servers temporarily cache your password in order to
add a new Mail account to your device. Your password is only cached for the
length of time it takes to install Intro, and never for more than 2 hours.
Typically, your password is cached for no more than 1 minute.
During usage, the servers may temporarily cache your emails in order to make
emails download faster. When your device starts to download a mail folder,
such as your inbox, the servers will pre-emptively download and cache recent
messages in that folder. A few seconds later, when your device downloads the
individual messages, the servers will provide the cached messages. Your
messages are only cached until your device downloads them, and never for
more than 1 hour. Typically, your messages are cached for no more than a few
minutes.
All cached information is held securely to industry standards. Each piece of
data is encrypted with a key that is unique to you and your device, and the
servers themselves are secured and monitored 24/7 to prevent any
unauthorized access.

The biggest issue is the title: "The Facts about...".
Its apparent from the language that the only "facts" discussed are couched in non-falsifiable language, are in the past-tense, and self-referential.

Although its not clear the author would have picked the language for the title himself (was likely PRs).
