Content: Your Public Profile
While the LinkedIn Account & Settings page has a special section marked for privacy, other categories affect the amount of information other people on LinkedIn see when they visit your page or search for your name. Under Profile Settings, pay particular attention to the information you make available on your Public Profile. This information may be visible to people who are your “connections.” In other words, it is information you should feel comfortable for anyone to see. After clicking on the Profile option, you can select options that allow your profile to be seen by others. The default for these settings makes most of your LinkedIn profile information available to everyone, including your picture, work summary, education and past jobs. You might want to change these if you don’t want certain people or groups of people to access this information. Back on the main Account & Settings page, under Profile Settings, you can also adjust who sees your LinkedIn status message or your member feed. Your member feed displays all the actions you take on LinkedIn, such as updating your resume or changing a link within your profile. Your Privacy Settings
In general, LinkedIn does a good job of keeping your information anonymous as it relates to market research.
