I was getting repeated spam from LinkedIn (“x wants to connect with you”) around 2012. Hitting unsubscribe would stop it for a calendar month, but then it would start again. I ended up sending them an email threatening court action under UK spam legislation if I ever had another unsolicited email from a LinkedIn.com domain again, and since then it’s been blissful silence. Highly recommended. Having since moved to Sweden, I can tell you that not having an account here is viewed as somewhere between wilfully contrarian and bizarre. It doesn’t seem to have affected my career though.
