Microsoft says it is shutting down LinkedIn in China
CBSN
Microsoft said it is shutting down its LinkedIn service in China later this year after internet rules were tightened by Beijing, making it the latest American tech giant to lessen its ties to the country.
The company said in a blog post Thursday that it has faced a "significantly more challenging operating environment and greater compliance requirements in China." Earlier this year, China's internet regulator informed LinkedIn that it needed to better regulate its content and gave the service 30 days to make changes, the Wall Street Journal reported.
LinkedIn will replace its localized platform in China with a new app called InJobs that has some of LinkedIn's career-networking features but "will not include a social feed or the ability to share posts or articles."

It appeared on Wednesday that President Trump likely still has some deal-making to do before he can claim to have brokered a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas to end the devastating war in Gaza. Mr. Trump said in a Tuesday evening social media post that Israel had "agreed to the necessary conditions to finalize" a 60-day ceasefire, and he called on Hamas to accept the deal, warning the U.S.- and Israeli-designated terrorist group that "it will not get better — IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE."
