Google Plus often presents me with a list of people and says, "Maybe you want to add some of these people to your circle". If I then do so, it sends them an email that says "MarkMc added you to his circles and invited you to join Google+".
This is really spammy behaviour. When I add someone to a circle I am NOT inviting them to join Google Plus, and I generally don't want them to receive an email. Can I stop Google Plus from doing this?
Thanks
If you don't mind me piggybacking on your Google+ question with a similar annoyance that I'm dealing with - I made the mistake of joining/adding the HackerNews Google+ circle that somebody here had created awhile back. Now my chat client (Trillian) thinks I've got over 700 Google Talk friends that I want to keep in touch with - these are people I don't know and will never chat with. I've tried re-installing Trillian, and deleting these "contacts" from Trillian, but they keep coming back. I've removed myself from the Google+ HN circle almost immediately. These people don't show up in my Contacts list in GMail. Anybody have suggestions on how I can get rid of them?
