Does shadow banning happen on LinkedIn? I wouldn't trust them. They'll happily take down everyone they don't agree with in a heartbeat, then one day go "Oh. What happened to all our user engagement?" (Maybe we did go a little overboard).

I think a similar play happened on YT after the great cull over there a few years back, when several purged channels said after a couple of years of banishment, that a "come back, we miss you. Xxx" message suddenly popped up 2 years later.

My Twitter account has been in a permanent state of shadowban since March of 2020, and it can stay that way for all I care.

These tech tyrants think they can just cast you out into the wilderness, then reel you back in at will.

What they don't realise is that we move on.

As does our momentum and enthusiasm for when they were flavor-of-the-month.

Pretty soon they're just another MySpace or Reddit.

I’m happy for you, but I still don’t get LinkedIn. I don’t understand how it is supposed to work. I’m on there, but 🤷🏻‍♀️.

Guess, I don't really get it, but then again I never used LinkedIn. I thought it was a website for making contact with other people in your profession or for expanding business contacts. Why do they care what people write about????

Congrats, but screw LinkedIn. I had 15 years 100,000+ direct contacts, hundreds of articles, 8 booming groups with 10,000+ member each. All wiped, with no recourse, because of posting a Zelenko ivermectin article that got 100k hits, mostly from big pharma including 50 CEOs (I have snapshots). This was pre EUA!

Fuck 'em. They are part of the problem.

This is good news.

I don’t do LinkedIn on the weekends, but when I get back to the office on Monday I will send you an invitation.

I have about 1,300 connections across banking, finance and professional service providers. I have already stigmatized myself on the platform for posting and liking “true” content over the past few years. I would be honored to help spread your “misinformation” there.

Glad you are back on! But LinkedIn is just part of the Deep State cabal, as I wrote about in https://blaisevanne.substack.com/p/how-technology-went-from-freedom Not that I"m Bill Gates' best friend, nor Larry Ellison's et al; however, I have been in IT since 1985, and am the creator of the Server+ certification, which when I created it 20 years ago was formally used by Intel, HP, IBM, Adaptec, Novell, Compaq, etc. So, as the State Farm commercial says, I know a thing or two, because I've seen a thing or two.
