Whyyyy linkedin, just why??

the one thing facebook does right- not block your app with a pop-ip to add new friends. The heck is going on with the PMs of linkedin?

I’m able to close that to get past the screen. It’s not difficult just look for the exit link

Don’t use the app and don’t allow them to import your contacts list.

It always suggests ppl from my old email account to add as connections, some of whom have died or been test/junk emails.

What’s the name of the LinkedIn PM responsible for this spammy feature? Can someone out them into shame?

LinkedIn Rhisnndow Oct 14, 2018

We hate it too to be honest. But I guess the PM has metric to drive and this probably worked

That feature existed way before Microsoft acquired LinkedIn.

An effective feedback is to report this emails that suggest you to add connections as spam. Team will find a downtrend in click through and might test to reduce such spam.

Or just tag Jeff Weiner on LinkedIn

If we all decided to invite him to connect at the same time…
