Scholars on LinkedIn Are Being Blocked in China ‘Without Telling Them Why’

Eyck Freymann, an Oxford University doctoral student, was surprised to get a notice from LinkedIn this month telling him his account had been blocked in China. The “Experience” section of his profile, which detailed his career history, contained “prohibited” content, he was informed.

The social-networking site owned by Microsoft Corp. didn’t explain more, but Mr. Freymann said he thought it was because he had included the words “Tiananmen Square massacre” in the entry for his two-year stint as a research assistant for a book in 2015.

“LinkedIn is pulling people’s material off without telling them why,” he said. “It was surprising because I am just a graduate student. I didn’t think I would have mattered.”

Second US tech firm withdraws from China in less than a month as Beijing tightens grip

Yahoo has announced its withdrawal from the Chinese market in the latest retreat by foreign technology firms responding to Beijing’s tightening control over the industry.

“In recognition of the increasingly challenging business and legal environment in China, Yahoo’s suite of services will no longer be accessible from mainland China as of November 1,” the company said on 2 November 2021.

The timing of the pullout coincided with the implementation of China’s new data protection law, which came into effect on 1 November 2021.

Yahoo’s withdrawal came less than a month after another US tech company, Microsoft’s professional networking platform #LinkedIn, announced it was shutting down operations in China. In public, the company blamed a “significantly more challenging operating environment” as well as “greater compliance requirements in China”.
