I do not have a LinkedIn profile because I've run into issue with doxxing in the past. Limiting the availability of my personal information online has always seemed like a safer bet. However, after reading through a lot of comments, there does seem to be a good amount of support for LinkedIn.
Aside from the social spam and fake recruiter pestering, can anyone speak to the value of it? There are several comments referring to multiple jobs they've received because of it. Though I have a good job now, it seems more and more that you need an online presence to land programming jobs. I'm trying to gauge whether delving into that is worth the risk of making the information available again.
