LI’s decision to drop their age-requirement from 18 to 13 is bound to cause an uproar. Leaving how paramount it is to protect children aside (if that’s even possible) while there are indeed aspiring business / entrepreneurial professionals, etc. (under the age of 18) this move seems more at going the way of Facebook than anything else. Unless, of course, LI is on to something that nobody else is aware of?
