Amidst news of LinkedIn being bought by Microsoft, one mystery remains: Where have all the "Super Connectors" gone? It appears that the website
built on making connections might frown upon having too many.
Most users on LinkedIn have under 500 connections. There is a subsection of LinkedInusers who are connected to hundreds of thousands of people. Individually, Steven Burda and Zura Kakushadze have accumulated more connections than the majority of people in your office combined. Their
accounts, along with a slew of others, have vanished.
It's impossible to determine exactly how many of the accounts were
deactivated, mostly because outside of LinkedIn messages nobody knows
how to reach each other. Their voices have been lost. While they wait in
limbo for an answer as to when their accounts will be reinstated, we can
only make assumptions as to what the real reason for their disappearance is.
Kakushadze has a PhD in theoretical physics, more than 11 years of
experience in quantitative finance, and has published over 100 scientific
papers. Burda has a background in finance, IT, and accounting but feels at
home as a social media consultant. To say that their loyal followers are
missing out on their teachings is an understatement.
Curiosity may have killed the cat, but I wanted to know why they were
deleted. Did they violate the terms of service? Did they somehow game
the system, lie, cheat, or steal? I was able to contact the two most
connected users to get their side of the story.

How Many Connections Is Too Many?

LinkedIn is built on the expectation that you can build your professional
identity and discover opportunities online. Mutual friends on LinkedIn
introduced me to these two Super Connectors, who felt as though they
had grown too large of a following and were banned because of it.
When I was a child, I cared for a friend's pet hamster while she was away.
I knew I had to feed him, but I didn't know how often. One day, I emptied
the whole box of food into the cage and let the hamster eat as it pleased.
I came back to check in on little Hammie, and to my dismay he had
passed away.
I later learned that he had eaten himself to death. He didn't know any better: Food was good; it helped him to survive.
The same goes for LinkedIn users whose businesses thrive on the platform.
Why were they given the ability to make connections only to be slapped on
the wrist when they had too many?
The top 10 Super Connectors have all been denied access to their accounts.
In fact, when you go to one of their pages, it simply says, "Sorry, this profile couldn't be displayed." Most claim that their emails asking for help from
LinkedIn have gone ignored.

Why Are Some Allowed More Than Others?

L.I.O.N: LinkedIn Open Networker. These people usually have the most connections, and currently it's not known why some people are capped at
30,000 while others aren't.
I have nearly 30,000 connections and 8,000 open requests that I cannot
accept. I use LinkedIn to advertise my business, Bikini Luxe, and to connect
with like-minded people. These days it's all about whom you know, not what
you know.
When asked how he had amassed such a following, Kakushadze said, "Painstakingly. You either receive a connection request or you send one.
One at a time."

Could This Happen to You?

We can only speculate as to what the motives are, but the vague wording
of the LinkedIn Terms of Service leaves a lot to the imagination. According
to Kakushadze, he doesn't market or advertise on or make any money from LinkedIn. His main purpose on the website is to popularize his research and spread knowledge.
His papers on quantum finance, cancer research, and theoretical physics
make my head spin. Why anyone (or any social platform) would want to halt someone like him from educating others entirely for free is beyond me.
Steven Burda spent 10 years carefully cultivating his LinkedIn connections
and growing his business. Will people still be interested in attending his
LinkedIn Workshops if he isn't actually on the platform any longer?
What I have found is that this could happen to anyone, for any reason.
What we are led to believe to be our virtual property is not really ours at all,
and it can be taken away at any time.
In a world where who you are on social media is all that matters, when your popularity online grants you access to more clientele and deems you valid, having that stripped away when you've worked hard to achieve it must be devastating.
