LinkedIn recently deleted the account of a 14-year-old named Kairan Quazi, who gained attention for graduating from university and landing a job at SpaceX. The reason for the deletion was that Quazi did not meet the platform’s minimum age requirement of 16.
Quazi expressed his disappointment with LinkedIn’s decision, stating that he was qualified enough for a prestigious job but not to use a professional social media platform. He encouraged others to share the notice on their LinkedIn accounts and connect with him on Instagram instead, where the minimum age requirement is 13.
While some users supported LinkedIn’s decision, citing the importance of adhering to rules and potential risks to underage users, others criticized the platform and suggested that Quazi should buy LinkedIn and show them how to manage it better.
