Absolutely shit feature. Makes no sense.
You can change your visibility settings to Private Mode so even if you look someone up, it won’t show your profile
This
I have my setting on private mode and this happens to me all the time, I look at someone’s profile and then see they viewed me too. Like wth?!?
Looking and viewing are two different things according to you?
Are doing a google search and clicking a result to view the page different things? Come on google
Low bar hire confirmed. Go read page rank white paper pls.
Moral of the story if you want to cyberstalk an ex, use incognito mode.
Won’t work lol
Snap - try harder
What happens if you search for Mr. X Y and there are 100 others with same full name.. does it show as viewed for all of them. Hard to believe. I think you might have opened partly.. without viewing full
Exactly. There is no way
It doesn’t.
Wow what a shitty feature.. incognito mode?
I just google search on incognito mode. So simple.
A lot of profiles don’t allow search on google
Just make a burner account.
So if I search the name Adam Smith then 10k people will be notified that I viewed their profile?
Exactly makes no sense. They looked up a person using specific data (an email or name with company name) and wants to remain anonymous. LI is a networking site, not a cyberstalking forum. Go to Facebook if you want to do that.
Yeah, this is a shit post imo. I had 77 searches but not 77 views. Also, I had premium. Views is when someone OPENS my profile and searching is let's say you searched someone named John but didn't clicked on any profile. You will get notified on the first but not on the second.
IMO even the whole idea of telling people when I view their profile is stupid to begin with. Nobody else needs to know what I’m doing on the internet and when.
It gives the viewed person an ego boost
I’ve never understood that. I get notifications that a recruiter viewed my profile every couple hours, why I disabled my LI notifications
I have it setup so that no one can see when I view their profile. The trade off is that I’m never notified when someone views mine. Which is fine for me
Unless the other person has li premium then they can see even if you have the feature turned off
The only people who have premium are recruiters and weirdo LinkedIn Influencer lowlifes

Asians - what are your thoughts on asian female white male ?
You can turn off the feature.
Well yeah. But it counts as view even if we search them
Just turn off you showing up in viewers list for looking at profiles if you don’t want people to see you. I’ve done this and do my LinkedIn stalking in privacy.
