> I think the value of LinkedIn is diminishing and will continue to decline.

I don't see how that would be the case, it's the de-facto rolodex for your work-circle and I don't think I know any alternative that is getting popular.

I think it's value is you are able to be found be those looking to employ you. If you don't want to be offered employment, I don't see a point in having a LinkedIn - a resume does just fine when you are looking.

But this goes towards the GPs post, it is public information. I also deleted my LinkedIn awhile ago. In my opinion a company or person should only be given my CV when I offer it to them.

In terms of a work-circle rolodex, this is odd to me. If I want to keep in contact with the person in the future I will have their personal contact info and keep in touch, otherwise not.

Consider that not all of us mind sharing their CVs to the world. The potential for harm is quite low, and there are meaningful upsides.
