LinkedIn promises to send only the messages you’d want to read
LinkedIn is working on an email, text and push notifications platform called Air Traffic Controller (ATC), perhaps in an effort to avoid losing more money to settle another lawsuit. The social network for professionals was notorious for spamming members until those who’ve had enough filed a class-action suit in California. To settle the case, LinkedIn agreed to pay select members $13 million, and it also cut back on notifications to the point that it’s now sending 50 percent fewer emails than before, or so it claims in ATC’s announcement post. The new platform’s expected to rein in notifications even further by using algorithms to guess the kind of emails — and even texts, if you signed up for those for some reason — you’d actually want to get.
