Here is a letter I received from Ellis Mirsky, executive director of the Network of Trial Law Firms:
"Is there a way to turn off or reject endorsements on LinkedIn? I find that people (many, almost daily) are endorsing me for skills I don’t have. I’d like to shut that down. People are using it to generate reciprocal endorsements, which I refuse to do. Endorsements on LinkedIn are becoming popularity contests. How many can one run up? He has more than she, etc. And they’re meaningless. Anyone can endorse anyone else for anything, without any check on the system. I’d like to see it eliminated."
