If you expose your information you’ll be spammed, and when the spammer is challenged he/she will reason that it was done under “legitimate interest”. The only way is closing the leak and avoid any of your personal information exposed on the internet. History time: a shady company that organises conferences contacted me guessing my corporate email from information in Linked-in. When challenged they said “legitimate interest” and removed my information at the moment. I sent a formal complain to as much people as I could (they also exposed a lot of emails online) and left in some message boards information about this company so other people affected could understand easier where the information was leaked. They contacted three months later with a different company name (same speakers, same program, same names everywhere, same web, different domain), I repeated the same procedure. Also my name in Linked-in has only my initials.
