LinkedIn may forward your complaint, including your contact details, to the Member who posted the content
Whether or not LinkedIn disables access to or removes the content, it may make a good faith attempt to forward the written notification, including the complainant’s contact information, to the Member who posted the content. Instead of or in addition to forwarding, it may take other reasonable steps to tell that Member that LinkedIn received notice of an alleged intellectual property or other content violation. Anyone filing a complaint should expect that the posting Member may see their notice and contact details.
