Depends on linkedin beeing nice, but could this be an idea? In addition 
to the proposed network level controls of course. At least users could 
get a informative response rather than just some dumb error / "it doesnt

Votes maybe?

I considered proposing making it opt-in on the domain level, but that 
wont fly for them I'm sure.
