You can unsubscribe from all LinkedIn email, but you'll still get email for any new category they invent later. So I keep having to do this every few months. For example: "endorsements" became a thing and suddenly I had to turn that pointless spam off too. I expect they'll invent a new product which involves opting everyone in.

I hope Google shared this sort of information with LinkedIn. "Your daily emails are reliably considered spam, by people who actually want to use your services."
They do, when a user marks an email as spam gmail pings the sender back and notifies them. I imagine this is most useful for the bulk email sending services.

Twitter does this (automatically subscribes you to each new category of email) as well, and it infuriates me to no end.

I think you are right, I thought I had read about the feature somewhere but now I cannot find any mention of it. Thank you for calling me out.
well he never updated his linkedin to a new email and you have to sign in to unsubscribe. well, i don't want to reset his password because i can see he still uses the LI and there is no way to stop these emails. seems like making it impossible to unsubscribe would violate CAN-SPAM.
What about Google+ and Facebook? Although I would argue Google+ is the worse one since it automatically add you to every notification possible when you only want to sign up for a Mail Account.
