I’m not a lawyer but does that mean scraping LinkedIn is indeed illegal? Or is it still yet to be determined?

TLDR: The short answer is: it is legal to scrape LinkedIn properly. However, scraping LinkedIn a certain way could be illegal.

Scraping data from public LinkedIn profiles? Ok. Scraping data from LinkedIn profiles with fake logged-in accounts? Not ok.
