I'm genuinely curious - is interacting with recruiters now considered a bad move career-wise? As in, because of the scummy tactics some of them use, will it make it harder to land a job in the future due to the shady things they do with your CV/personal info?

I don't think the issue is good or bad move, but volume of time wasted by third party recruiters who collect candidates and shop them around but have no job for you in mind / can waste your time endlessly.
