We do not allow organizations or individuals that espouse violence on LinkedIn, including terrorist organizations, violent extremist groups, and individuals affiliated with such groups or activity. We also restrict profiles and pages associated with dangerous organizations and individuals regardless of whether they have posted violative content.

-
Content that visually depicts acts or terrorism or that promotes or propagandizes terrorist groups, individuals, or activities
-
Glorification or incitement of dangerous organizations and individuals, acts of terror or violent extremism
-
Recruitment for terrorist groups or other organizations that espouse violence
-
Profiles or pages created and maintained by or in support of terrorist organizations or terrorist individuals, including:
- Any non-state group that (1) identifies through its stated purpose, publications, or actions as an extremist group, (2) engages or has engaged in violence and / or the promotion of violence to further its cause, and (3) targets civilians (non-military)
- Any individual that appears in the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Domestic Terrorism or Most Wanted Terrorists Lists or is a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) by the United States Department of State or the US Department of the Treasury


Depictions of terrorist or violent extremist acts can sometimes raise awareness or condemn and there are instances when the context indicates that it was shared for one or both of those purposes. We won’t penalize members for posting content in these circumstances, but we may take steps to label and obscure such content to protect other members who may not wish to see it.
