I am not sure if it's satire or real. Hilarious no matter what...it was probably your domain. Even with your disclaimer you are still infringing.

Well, I did not know that. I didn’t think mentioning LinkedIn as part of my keyword would be some type of infringement as there are other webpages with the same content.
However, I would’ve changed the domain name or even took down the site if they requested me to. They did not have to permanently suspend my account, which is unlawful and unwarranted.

What is the infringement exactly?

I violated their brand policy. I’m assuming it’s because of the domain name.
I also say assume because I’m not even 100% certain.
It’s a bit scary though cause in their TOS they can just remove your profile and tell you to F off with no warning or explanation like they did to me…

Well literally any company can do that so nothing surprising there.
