My younger brother (deceased now 10 years) is still one of my LinkedIn contacts. It's not so bad as other platforms since I don't interact with LinkedIn much but it hurt a great deal at first and LinkedIn had no mechanism to retire or close his profile.
- rootusrootus 7y agoFWIW, they do now. I just recently closed my younger brother's account (he died four years ago). They have a form for it, you say who you are, what your relationship is, and they ask for a link to an obituary. Then they delete the account. Facebook, I think, marks old accounts as memorials. I don't Facebook anymore so I might be remembering that wrong.
