Agreed, and I do get unsolicited Linkedin requests quite often.
Sometimes, this is clearly the result of someone scraping a list
like NANOG in an effort to drum up new business/contacts.  Those
end up in the bitbucket.

When you turn down a connection there should be "I don't know this
person" which demotes them somehow.  I gather that with enough of
those, you can't do invites any more.

Permanent Solution:  Get rid of LinkedIn (whatever the hillbilly a Linkedin is)

The fact that there's a Highway to Hell but only a Stairway to Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic volume.
