Sorry, prostitutes, you can't promote services on LinkedIn anymore
While Facebook is notorious for sneaky changes to its privacy
policy, this time it’s LinkedIn that's made a rather interesting update. The
professional networking site just casually added a new clause that states in
using LinkedIn, you promise not to "create profiles or provide content that
promotes escort services or prostitution." Um, what? Apparently "prostitution"
is a skill on LinkedIn that you can be "endorsed" for by others, and the site's
search algorithm suggests that LinkedIn members are regularly looking for "call
girls" and "female escorts." Who knew prostitutes even had resumes, never mind
LinkedIn profiles.
