My LinkedIn account is banned

yet again.

LinkedIn did the same last year – permanently restricted my 14-year-old account without giving any specific reason.

And they refused to clarify quoting their privacy policy.

Despite multiple appeals, they stood firm, so I finally gave up.

12k+ followers gone in a snap!

In Jan this year, I decided to give it another go – created a new account and started creating content with a new zeal.

I got to interact with some incredibly supportive and positive people – it felt like a community in a true sense.

I also took a LinkedIn writing course and finished its last lesson last night.

I was super pumped up to apply what I’ve learnt when out of the blue, my account was restricted yet again today.

My group, company page and newsletter I created there – all gone.

I feel sad and heartbroken.

I hate the power these social media platforms have over one’s contacts and audience.

They can make it all go away whenever they want.

All I have now is this newsletter and a YouTube channel.

So, these are the only things I am going to be focusing on now.

With a heavy heart, of course.

Let’s see.
