Decision trail

Decision date 28/02/2024 · Reference ↗

The company prepares for withdrawal from Russia. LinkedIn is blocked in Russia because it uses foreign servers to store users’ personal data. Since this is against Russian law stating the servers need to be on Russian territory, people located or traveling in Russia aren’t able to access this website.
