Ah, looks like everyone's using that API key, I got 2 queries for my addresses and got a "rate limit exceeded" message.

Strangely it only says I work in real estate (no I don't) when I looked up the email address I use for LinkedIn...



You, and others can use my api key, just signed up.

Status 429, Rate limit error.

Try changing v4 to v3 in the URL.


Yup, that worked for me.

Indeed they do have a profile on me - a bare minimum, scaped from GitHub. That makes sense, since that's about the only social platform I use, aside from HN.

EDIT: My GMail address has the most amount of information gathered, which makes sense. It's gathered Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, GitHub..

It lists my skills as: firefighting and emergency planning/management/services. I suppose, with a stretch of imagination..


Here's mine eaca37c25ca1a9c5d85efb8cbaf1742b4fbfeee0054d713961176ab9500c2f2b
