In the real world there is stuff that is illegal and some of those things can be in image format. And the part that sucks is clearly the retaliation from whoever it was.

No, it's not a shame. Mocking someone because their wording is imprecise is a bit shameful, though. Also against the HN guidelines. You can do better.
I don’t understand why people are surprised to lose social media accounts like this. Companies decide to stop selling products all the time. We don’t see posts like this every time Wal-Mart decides to stop selling some brand of cookies, and it’s essentially the same relationship we have as their products.
Happened to me with telegram. Reported a scammer in relevant tg channels, next thing I know , several users reported me, and telegram blocked me for spam.
So you are saying that on LinkedIn if you report something the owner can see the name of who reported it?
I had LinkedIn until October 2021. A colleague was leaving, and I'd been asked to go around the team of 200 people, gathering farewell greetings. Another work project at the same time was the software language translations for our product. I manually trimmed the list of 200 colleagues down to 70 "international" names. Then I manually searched for each colleague on Google, and clicked the first link. Usually that was…
It sounds insane, but I suspect what tripped their heuristic was not so much looking at a lot of profiles but not messsaging any of them within LinkedIn's messaging system, which is their use-case for making money (recruiter/journalist/hiring manager/etc.) So your browsing behavior appears to LI's heuristics either like a scraper or a legit user who isn't likely to convert into a paying customer, and they simply don't care which you are (whatever the TOS might allow).
I'm shocked LI's heuristics are that bad. I recommend you post your issue here (suitably anonymized) as a separate thread (link from here), and I expect it'll get upvoted.

Illegal can have multiple definitions, and some advertisement can be illegal. No, it's not a shame. Mocking someone because their wording is imprecise is a bit shameful, though. Also against the HN guidelines. You can do better.

I wonder if more those accounts have pro and can see you viewed them recently, probably multiple accounts are owned by the same groups so when they get a report on a bunch of posts they simple map "who looked at both profiles".
They don't even need LinkedIn Pro btw, they just have to turn Private Mode off. If you let other people see that you viewed their profile then LinkedIn will let you see who viewed your profile. So yeah your theory seems most likely unless OP had Private Mode turned on for his profile (then they wouldn't be able to see that he saw their profile regardless of whether or not they have LinkedIn Pro).
Shortly after putting in for it, my linkedin reported I had a visit from a "Law Enforcement professional from the Washington-Baltimore area", which I thought was amusing.
