Seems like LinkedIn had to do some finessing and still couldn't go with global anycast.

How do CDNs work without controlling DNS resolution by source subnet?

Cloudflare uses any cast, and they deal with it by making every external node able to handle every public IP that they have. If packets in a TCP stream end up going to different nodes, then they deal with that in their infrastructure.

Presumably a CDN has better and more direct peerings with ISPs than LinkedIn, or admittedly archive.is.
