Yahoo mail. Gmail, Hotmail provide a real monetary value to me : they make it easy for me to get emails without setting up my email server or being hostage to the whims of my ISP. I trade my email privacy with these companies in exchange for savings. I understand that deal and I am comfortable with it. LinkedIn on the other hand is an addressbook / contact list and nothing more to me. I do not assign their service having any monetary value to me. I am not a call center operator : I do not need that lookup capability. Therefore I do not want them to fuck with my email. And that is why I find their hack to be sleazy.
