CEO requiring all employees to use his personal LinkedIn Sales account

Just inquiring opinions because this always felt very weird to me. The CEO at my former company required all employees to use his personal LinkedIn account rather than paying for multiple memberships for the team. We would use Sales Navigator on a daily basis and all had full access to his private messages. He would do this with other websites as well, particularly ones with high membership fees. When I started, he had an Excel document with all the passwords that was shared to each employee. He did many shady things but this one was aways very uncomfortable for me. Not sure if it violates the TOS or anything but just strange to me… Thoughts?
