I abstain from LinkedIn deliberately and I can confirm that I am sick from their spam.
Every time a friend joins their network, I get tons of “invitations to connect”, despite the fact that I have “unsubscribed” from their spam-list (to which I never subscribed in the first place) enough times.
Real professionals should not need spammy social networks to prove themselves.
