That is so odd. So I use Safari for general browsing. Typically use Chrome in private window but rarely for general browsing (only sometimes). For a while I would always check linkedin profiles from google private window and a google search and it stopped working a few months ago (getting an auth wall). After reading your message, I opened Firefox (which I never use), googled a name, click on the linkedin name, and bang it worked!


Weird. Yeah, no idea. Sounds like they have some other exceptions in place too then. :)

On the other hand I don't use Google any more (mostly StartPage or DDG), which is likely why I hadn't noticed the use-Google workaround.
