Linked in required me to install the mobile app, upload a selfie, and pictures of my id. So now it's out in limbo somewhere, can't even contact support without logging-in, which is a circular issue on purpose. 

We still gotta make money somehow, it's an opportunity no matter how shitty. Lots of ways to look at it though.  

 Weird. I didn't have to do anything like that  

 I created mine this year. I was able to sign up at first, then a month or two later they locked me out and required me to "verify my account"
