Professional networking platform company.
Data scraping, or third parties taking personal data from your profile without permission, is a breach of our policies and when necessary we take legal action as part of our efforts to combat it.
We will continue to fight on behalf of our members to stop illegal scraping. From taking legal action against unauthorized scraping to making significant investments in technical defenses, we are committed to keeping the control of data where it belongs - with our members.

Source URL (news.linkedin.com 2025 'LinkedIn takes legal action to defend member privacy') returns HTTP 403 from WebFetch. Web search confirms the page exists with this content: LinkedIn explicitly states data scraping is a breach of policies and has filed multiple 2025 lawsuits (against ProAPIs Inc., Proxycurl) to keep control of member data. Vote (Against 'Grant developers the right to interoperate with large platforms without permission') aligns precisely with LinkedIn's anti-scraping, permission-required posture. Marking ai_unverifiable per protocol because I cannot directly fetch the source.
