How does a VPN unblock LinkedIn?

LinkedIn includes geolocation features and tracks your location through your IP address, to help filter nearby job opportunities and connections for you. However, this also means that LinkedIn may not work if you’re currently in a country where the service is blocked.

A VPN can help bypass these restrictions. With ExpressVPN, you’ll be able to mask your IP address and encrypt your traffic by routing it through secure VPN server locations that you choose when you connect.

This means that if you select a VPN server location in the U.S., you can sign in and use LinkedIn as if you were in the United States, no matter where you actually are in the world!
