LinkedIn En-route To Ban World's Oldest Profession


Bangalore: LinkedIn is on its way to ban the oldest profession in the world-“Prostitution.”

The largest professional networking site in the world, LinkedIn, informed its more than 200 million users about a major revamp to its privacy policy and user agreement. Most of the changes are simplification of the legalese, but one particular term caught the eye of the users; in “LinkedIn ‘Dos’ and ‘DON’Ts’” section, which is about “Don’t undertake the following,” it says “Even if it is legal where you are located, create profiles or provide content that promotes escort services or prostitution,” reports readwrite.com. 

The site where the individuals try to carve out their professional identity in an appeasing manner, would anyone really take the risk of advertising adult services? The answer is yes. Prostitution or the skin trade is apparently a skill that needs to be endorsed on LinkedIn.
