New sensitive content warnings on LinkedIn

New sensitive content warnings on LinkedIn

Every day, members of the global workforce share professionally-focused insights, knowledge, and resources with each other on LinkedIn. While the vast majority of content and conversations focus on the world of work, members do also engage and share perspectives on world events. 

Starting today, we are introducing sensitive content warnings as a way to notify you when a photo or video on LinkedIn contains sensitive or graphic content. This warning gives our members control over whether they view this content, which can serve a newsworthy or educational purpose while complying with our policies. More information about these warnings is available here (https://lnkd.in/gGqEnjg3). 

Our Professional Community Policies (https://lnkd.in/PCP) detail what we do and don't allow on LinkedIn, and we’re committed to setting a high standard to keep the platform safe, trusted, and professional. We use technology, human reviewers, and member reporting to help identify and remove content that violates our policies. This includes content shared to promote or glorify violence. 

If you see something you think violates LinkedIn’s policies, please report it (https://lnkd.in/g7TX7hCp) so that we can take action. 

This is a global platform and ensuring that it remains safe, trusted, and professional is our priority. We’ll keep working hard to ensure that it is.

Hey Mate You are blocking content from india exposing terrorism. Your linkedin states its sensitive and even when you click 6 times, it doesnot let us ro view post. Are you supporting terrorists and not spreading the crap they have done?

Is there a way for creators to "tag" our own content as sensitive so that we can be proactive for posts that might be sensitive in nature?

Nice. It would be great if you could do also something against the trolls on this platform who mass-report pro-democracy voices (like mine and many others), leading to their blocking.

If only they would start flagging fake profiles and spammers too.
