I reported this post for harassment. LinkedIn said "nope this is fine":

This is pretty fucking egregious. I don't care if the candidate was wildly unprofessional or not, you don't fucking drop names like this publicly.

If I was that candidate I'd be calling lawyers right about now.

Also, if you reported it, they don't let you see it afterwards, even if they refuse to take it down. So it may look like they've taken action when all they've done is make it sorta look like they did, just to you.

You didn’t think LinkedIn was doing anything wrong when they asked people to put up pictures of themselves? You didn’t catch on that LinkedIn is the biggest facilitator of workplace discrimination?

I never thought linkedin wasn't doing anything wrong

Well, it's hard to call it libel, because they hardly made any actual claims. I was waiting to hear about the "unprofessional behavior", but they seem to have forgotten that part?

The only unprofessional behavior seems to be the post itself. If you're going to make allegations, make actual allegations or don't say anything.

Would you have downvoted them if they said it was cancer?
