How to Stop LinkedIn From Telling Someone You Viewed Their Profile

To find this option, head to the LinkedIn website, click your profile icon on the top bar, and select “Settings & Privacy.”

Click “How others see your profile and network information” under Privacy. Click “Profile viewing options.”

Select how you want to appear. You can select “Anonymous LinkedIn Member” for pure private browsing or select your private profile characteristics, which may appear as just “Someone on LinkedIn” or something more specific.
People will still see that someone viewed their profile after you view their profile—but they’ll see only that an anonymous person viewed it.

As LinkedIn warns you on this settings page, there’s just one downside: When you become anonymous to other people, they become anonymous to you. LinkedIn will hide the names of people who view your profile from you after you enable this anonymity option.
