Each of my children has an email account that I configured on my own domain. When I enrolled them in a soccer team I used their email address in form. I get forwarded every email that they receive, but by noticing the To: field I can determine to who it was intended. I have been doing this for a few other sport teams.
Well, they continuously receive invitations to join LinkedIn from the soccer coach. He cannot be doing this on purpose. LinkedIn is swallowing his contact list and sending invites indiscriminately to every address.He could have uploaded on purpose, or most probably 'auto-approved' as said above. Yet, it doesn't change that this practice is desperate to say the least or actually, sick is a better term.

- koolba 10y ago> Do you think this is fair? For a young child? It'd be criminal not to do this. There's a BIG difference between protecting a young (say <13?) child from the evils and perversions that we all know exist in the world and invading the privacy rights of an adolescent. I'd say the natural tipping point for the switch is when the child decides to create their own email address.
- arkitaip 10y agoIf anything, I wish more parents acted like you (I know some that do but nearly not enough). Most have no idea what their kids are up to on email or various chat apps.
- rekado 10y agoWhen the children are little this makes sense. As they get older this can be the perfect teaching tool to introduce them to end-to-end encryption.
