I’m not on LinkedIn anymore
I haven’t been on LinkedIn for over a year now. My account was permanently ‘restricted’ (banned) on or around September 11th 2024 for what LinkedIn claims is “hateful speech”. At the time, I shared a lot of videos and re-posted other people’s posts on LinkedIn about the genocide by Israhell that is currently still ongoing in Palestine. A few of those may have gotten reported in a very short interval of a few days leading to my account getting banned.
Censorship on LinkedIn
My LinkedIn account seemed to have been targeted by people who didn’t like what I was posting. In this post I’ll give a brief overview of how it started and how my account ultimately got permanently banned.
So, it started back in January 2023 when I received the below email. I had shared a video about the dangers of the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine poison, specifically that it was causing sudden cardiac death. LinkedIn took the video down and restricted my account. In the screenshot below you can see the caption that was used along with the video when I posted it. This was during the COVID-19 plandemic when online censorship increased significantly in order to stop people from finding out what was really going on.

I’ve had my LinkedIn account probably since the very early 2000s and this was the first time ever that anything I posted on LinkedIn caused my account to get restricted. Previously my posts were just getting shadow banned on LinkedIn. I was able to successfully appeal and got back on LinkedIn within a day or two.
But not long after that, on May 24th 2023, another post of mine got censored and caused my account to get restricted. As you can see in the screenshot below, this time it was about the Oklahoma City bombing in the USA being an inside job (which it was).

I tried to appeal for several months but this time my appeal was denied, and my account was permanently restricted, as you can see from the screenshot below.

Shortly after the above email, I found a loophole through which I was able to get my account working again via LinkedIn support. I was able to use it again for a few months, until around May 4th 2024 when I would start to get locked out of my account regularly due to “security issues”.
As far as I can tell, my account was being attacked somehow by people trying to get me locked out of my account. During that time, I was posting a lot about the genocide being carried out by Israhell in Palestine every day, and I think someone, or perhaps a group of people, didn’t like it. It seems to me that they were probably trying to hack my account, not with the intention to take it over, but to trigger LinkedIn’s security systems in order to lock me out of the account so that I couldn’t post anymore. This happened at least 3 to 4 times.
And every time that it happened, I was able to get back access to my account in a few days. In the below screenshot you can see an email from LinkedIn support telling me that they restricted my account in error.

And in the below screenshot, you can see an email from LinkedIn support where they tell me to check my security and privacy after my account had been locked again due to “security issues”.

Then after a few weeks, on July 2nd 2024, I got back access after another case where I got locked out of my LinkedIn account due to “security issues”. You can see the email response below from LinkedIn support.

Then on July 31st 2024, I got locked out again due to “security issues” and you can see LinkedIn support’s response in the screenshot below on August 1st 2024 where I got back access to my account.

Then from September 6th to 11th 2024, a number of my posts were taken down by LinkedIn in a short time span of a few days, as you can see in the screenshot below of my email inbox. Those posts were all about the genocide by Israhell in Palestine.

After that last round of censorship, I wasn’t able to successfully appeal and get the restriction on my account lifted.

When I log in to LinkedIn now, I get presented with the below screen.

Clicking on the appeal button takes me to the below screen.

You cannot see the content of the post that was removed because of “hateful speech” in the above screenshot, but I can tell you that it had to do with the genocide in Palestine. It was probably a video showing Palestinians getting bombed by Israhell or shot by snipers for no good reason.
This is now more than a year ago, and I’ve been wanting to write a post about it but couldn’t find the time to do so until now. I had close to 10,000 connections/followers and my account got popular in the last few years when I was posting about the COVID-19 plandemic and the genocide in Palestine, with my posts regularly getting 100,000 to 200,000 views.
However, my LinkedIn account wasn’t of any value to me; the platform was being enshitified for a long while now anyway. After I got censored in 2023, I fully accepted the risk of losing my account permanently and still decided to post about the genocide in Palestine, knowing that Zionists would probably target my account. It was well worth it, and I would do it all over again if I could.
