Description: This notebook will follow a company on LinkedIn and send like to its last posts. The post URL will be hashed using SHA and stored in a directory. This ensures that you don't engage with the same post multiple times.

This project violates Linkedin's User Agreement Section 8.2, and because of this, Linkedin may (and will) temporarily or permanently ban your account. We are not responsible for your account being banned.
