After setting up my ASN, I received unsolicited emails from NTT and calls from Cogent. Fortunately I haven't gotten anything (or at least anything that I noticed) on LinkedIn. On Wed, Dec 19, 2018, 12:58 PM Brielle Bruns <bruns@2mbit.com wrote:

Every time I post to NANOG, I get multiple LinkedIn link requests or e-mails about selling my excess gear. It's getting old real quick.
I recommend:
Connect:linkedin.com ERROR:5.7.1:"550 Mail refused" From:linkedin.com ERROR:5.7.1:"550 Mail refused"
Salt to taste for your environment/MTA, but since the spammers running LinkedIn seem very unlikely to stop, this appears to be the optimal way to conserve bandwidth and time.

Except you know, those of us who actually use LinkedIn for professional contacts and all. I don't mind connecting with people as long as I've actually talked with you before on some professional level.
It does have some nice features for connecting on a business level, just people are abusing the shit out of it. -- Brielle Bruns The Summit Open Source Development Group http://www.sosdg.org / http://www.ahbl.org
