LinkedIn data scraping is a real pain, and honestly, LinkedIn doesn’t do enough to stop it. But here’s what I did to make my profile safer:
- Set my profile visibility to “connections only.”
- Turned off the “share profile updates” option.
- Blocked third-party apps in the settings.
It’s not foolproof, but it’s better than nothing. If you’re super concerned, you could also try using a service like ProxyCrawl to monitor and block scraping attempts.
