Am I Fully Screwed From Ever Recovering My LinkedIn Account?

I removed access to my own 2FA codes for LinkedIn because I assumed the ban they gave me was permanent per their emails, and they rejected all my appeals. The support system is almost entirely automated and from what I've read, most people have bad experiences with human agents anyways. I still remember my email and password that I used for my LinkedIn obviously, but without the 2FA codes I can't get back in (I've tried brute forcing, only to be hit with a rate limit after spamming some codes).

I made another LinkedIn account to bypass the ban, only for that account to be permanently banned in mere weeks; I know my first account didn't because a few weeks after, I started getting emails and I could search it up on LinkedIn (but not the 2nd). For that other account, I didn't remove the 2FA codes although since that one is permanently banned, I may as well remove them too. Yeah yeah yeah, I know bypassing bans in of itself is a bannable offence, but I thought the first time around was just a fluke.

Now I probably can go on the dark web and get some hacking tools to force myself into my locked account that way, but I've since moved on almost a year ago when I reactivated my Facebook and Instagram accounts. I sort of need at least something online as a way to connect with potential clients and candidates for my self employment venture (s), and what better than Facebook and Instagram? By the way, LinkedIn never discloses the reasons for their bans and my only guess due to too many people rejecting my connection invites.

I don’t know much about LinkedIn, but I’ve never heard of a social media site banning you just because no one wants to be friends with you. It’s probably something else you were accused of by someone who complained about you (either truthfully or falsely).

From what I know, the LinkedIn algorithms will flag any account that gives too many invites that get rejected; although maybe you're right because I did post some anti-woke stuff there

That’s probably what it was. The anti-woke stuff.

[bingbongbangbung]

Well I didn't go full on anti-woke, but some stuff might be perceived as such by the far left

[Opinion Owner]

I understand. It might also be the algorithm, like you said. I’m just surprised that a platform would discriminate so blatantly against people whose only crime is they’re not popular

[bingbongbangbung]

It's probably their way of dealing with bots and scammers

What kind of idiot even gets banned from LinkedIn, how does that even happen?

[bingbongbangbung]

I probably spammed too many invites that got rejected by too many people there
