| LinkedIn, the business-focused social network, charged in a federal civil lawsuit that 10 unnamed people had created thousands of fake accounts that can be used to pass on malicious computer code or puff up users’ profiles.
In a suit filed Monday in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, LinkedIn said it had deleted the abusive accounts and traced them to an Amazon Web Services account. It’s asking the cloud computing giant to hand over the names of the owners of the web-services accounts. Amazon Web Services offers computing power for rent via the Internet. |
