How to stop LinkedIn training AI on your data
What the policy itself says, plan by plan. Where LinkedIn publishes the steps, they're here in its own words, read from an archived copy of the page that gives them. Where it doesn't, this page says so instead of inventing a menu path.

The route LinkedIn gives, in its own words. There's no switch, so this is a request it has said it will act on. Each list is read from a dated, archived copy of the page it links to. If the address or form has moved, tell us at the foot of this page.
- Use the request route LinkedIn links from "Object to, or Limit or Restrict, Use of Data" (help article a1338610), or its Data Protection Officer form at linkedin.com/help/linkedin/ask/TSO-DPO.
- Ask LinkedIn to stop using your personal data to develop and train AI models.
"Object to, or Limit or Restrict, Use of Data : You can ask us to stop using all or some of your personal data (e.g., if we have no legal right to keep using it) or to limit our use of it (e.g., if your personal data is inaccurate or unlawfully held)."
The policy's examples for this right are data held unlawfully or inaccurately. It never says training rests on legitimate interests, which is the basis its objection right attaches to.
"We may use your personal data to improve, develop, and provide products and Services, develop and train artificial intelligence (AI) models, develop, provide, and personalize our Services, and gain insights with the help of AI, automated systems, and inferences, so that our Services can be more relevant and useful to you and others."
Did a step here not work, or does LinkedIn offer a control this page doesn't mention? Tell us and we'll correct it.
