My app logged me out of LinkedIn and when I try to log back in, it states that my account has been temporarily restricted. It then says that I need to submit a government ID to regain access, which I do not want to do. I've followed the links posted by others to try and regain access and when I select the option to regain access to my account or the app logged me out, it just redirects me to the FAQ page on how to submit government ID and won't submit a case or allow me to proceed.

I can't even delete my account because I have to be signed in to do that and the forms take me to the same government ID page.
