Linkedin Scraper is a library that scrapes Linkedin for user data. Version 2.0.0 and before is called linkedin_user_scraper and can be installed via pip3 install --user linkedin_user_scraper. The reason is that LinkedIn has recently blocked people from viewing certain profiles without having previously signed in. So by setting scrape=False, it doesn't automatically scrape the profile, but Chrome will open the linkedin page anyways. You can login and logout, and the cookie will stay in the browser and it won't affect your profile views. Then when you run person.scrape(), it'll scrape and close the browser. A driver using Chrome is created by default. However, if a driver is passed in, that will be used instead.
