> There is still no "stop sending my personal information to Microsoft" switch Sure there is. Don't use Windows.

  :-) I think that is necessary but not sufficient at this point, sadly. I don't use outlook, but they announced some feature where it looks up the senders of your emails on linked in. So, if anyone you know uses outlook, then linkedin knows you know them. I'm not sure if it looks at email bodies (yet), or if they rolled it out yet. Either way, Microsoft should soon be able to sell employers a reasonably complete list of employees that are looking for a new job (including employees that are not active on linkedin or that do not even have linkedin accounts). This is one example of many, I'm sure.
