Can’t you just not use it at all? I’ve never had an account (indeed I got them to blacklist me) and I can’t say that I’ve suffered. Though I guess I’ve had the benefit of being white / male / etc etc.

LinkedIn constantly gets me interviews for jobs paying 40% more than what I see listed on Stackoverflow /job sites / through recruiters, etc. I didn't realize what I was missing out on before I made a profile.

Maybe you were underpaid to start with? Unless each job you get 40% extra at which point i'll call you Bill Gates.

LI is awful.

How does one get to be blacklisted by Linkedin?

I threatened them with a court appearance if I ever had another email from them (never had an account, was hitting unsubscribe from every mail I had from them which lasted for exactly 30 days before the next). Voila, never saw another email; they must maintain some internal do-not-email list.
