LinkedIn has verified over 55 million users for free to combat misinformation spread by AI. The Microsoft-owned platform claims to have the most verified human identities among social networks. Unlike Meta and X, which charge for verification, LinkedIn uses corporate emails and government IDs for verification. The company aims to verify 100 million users by 2025 and emphasizes the importance of authenticity in building a trusted community.
