Hi David,

Thanks for sending along this feedback. Our paper claiming emails are free, and a way to get your Academia profile filled out more completely. You can, of course, continue to not respond to them, or you can turn them off entirely in your email notifications (https://www.academia.edu/settings#email-notifications) if you want.

If you have further questions, our support team can help you. Please feel free to submit a ticket: https://support.academia.edu/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=1500000715421

What is annoying: If I say I'm not a publishing ... (or whatever I can turn the radio button on) then I still get this question. If I'm not then accept this.
