Linkedin seems to be sending me a lot more notifications via email lately. I've never used the app, as LinkedIn likes to remind you constantly that they can harvest your data way more effectively if you use the app. IDK if they changed something or I did somehow, but I set my profile to private mode a while back mainly because I was getting inundated with connection requests. Now I'm suddenly getting the connection request emails. Is this happening to any other LI users here?

@briankrebs@infosec.exchange I see a general increase in activity, unwanted connection requests (many that I suspect are fake), sponsored posts with political agendas, as well as, lots of LinkedIn emails trying to get me to log into the platform.

It seems to parallel the 'evolution' of Facebook.

I doubt it has to do with your switching your profile status.
