When you follow someone, new content posted or shared by the person will be displayed in your feed. If you no longer wish to see the content of someone in your feed, you can always unfollow this person.
You can find people to follow from your feed, the Notifications tab, My Network page, or from the Search bar at the top of the page.
Unfollowing a person will hide all updates from them on your LinkedIn feed. If you're connected to a person and choose to unfollow them, you'll remain connected, but won't see their updates. They won't be notified that you've unfollowed them. LinkedIn members will receive a notification if you begin following them again.
Note: You can also follow people, companies, or topics by navigating directly to My Network page, which displays recommended sources to follow.
