- ... that a LinkedIn license contract had compelled the legal services marketplace UpCounsel to close but it ended up remaining in business?

The article notes, "Less than three weeks after the online legal marketplace UpCounsel announced plans to shut down, the company has announced that it will continue operations after all. ... Court declarations filed Feb. 4 by UpCounsel’s co-founders said UpCounsel had entered into a license agreement with LinkedIn Corp. that required UpCounsel to shut down."

Errant corrections?
editHello, I absolutely missed the copy edit notice today, having arrived at the correction to a new edit from my Watchlist, with apologies. (I was, in fact, just about to start editing the whole page.) Rather, I now refrain from correcting typos, such as "lawyersd" and grammar gaffes, like "UpCounsel had 10,000 lawyers sign up for an account, of whom they were selecting a small number they had reviewed", on the page, in deference to the copy edit in progress notice.
