The fun part is they are still public if you are the google bot. Open an incognito window and try going to a linkedin profile. Then try it with google translate: https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=&sl=af&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.linkedin.com%2Fin%2Fchristopher-conklin-42772938 https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=&sl=af&tl=en&u=htt... Odds are good you can still view the profile through translate because linkedin thinks you are google. LinkedIn, Pinterest and others want to be indexed by google, but don't want the content that's indexed to be public. Google is ruining their own service by allowing this to continue.
