These days Linkedin is just as popular as facebook and twitter. Linkedin allows peeps to market themselves, and connect with potential business acquaintances. It seems everyone has an account: consultants, the unemployed, the employed, stay at home moms, aspiring actors, etc. However, Linkedin does prohibit prostitutes from using their services. Hmm…I think that hookers would help the network, they’d definitely all have 500+ connections!
The network recently declared a new privacy policy and user agreement that prevents members from creating “profiles or providing content from promoting escort services or prostitution.” Brothel owner Dennis Hof has a bone to pick with Linkedin founders Jeff Weiner and Reid Hoffman, he feels the new rule is unjust and lacks distinction.
Dennis Hof owns the Moonlight Bunny Ranch in Mound House, Nevada where prostitution is legal. Sounds like a lovely establishment. Hof spoke to the Huffington Post and says he finds the policy pretty hypocritical considering it doesn’t effect porn stars, and according to Hof, a high percentage of them do escorting for extra moolah on the side. Hof goes on to state, “The FBI says anyone who takes money for sex is a prostitute.”
Hof has full intentions of grabbing the attention of Linkedin founders Jeff Weiner and Reid Hoffman with his frustrations towards the policy change. “Weiner is a funny name for a guy trying to stop sex,” Hof added. Well played, Hof!
