UserSignIn: Non-200 response from UserInfo: 451 HTTP ERROR 451 means unavailable for legal reasons.

Are you able to use the example from our upstream library https://github.com/markbates/goth to see more details about is what being returned, as I suspect linkedin may be blocking certain replies

Thanks for your reply. I downloaded that library and find out that the reason for that 451 ERROR is that the server is hosted on Tencent cloud and the IP address locates in China. I suppose Linkedin has blocked this IP range.

Thanks for debugging and getting that additional information. I will close this issue.
In case you have an IP in a different region, you might be able to use a proxy to support linkedin login (more information here: https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/config-cheat-sheet/#proxy-proxy)
