I got to a point a few years ago that anyone who finds my contact info anywhere on the internet and wants to sell me something is going to spam me, and there's nothing I can do about it. I just utilize the blocking / ignore functions of $platform and go about my day. At one time I did have a devious hold/transfer loop of doom setup on the company PBX that came in handy for trolling annoying sales calls, but I don't have access the company one now, and setting up my own for the same lulz is way too close to actual work for my tastes.

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.

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
