The increased capability is for the API lookup, since we use Linkedin's API to display mobile profiles. We can't access anything you couldn't already see by visiting a 2nd/3rd degree's profile page through your web browser. We are still bound by the limits set by Linkedin, and the privacy settings of their users.
In addition, we do not look up anyone for you as some other user, ever. Linkedin explicitly forbids it, and we don't think it's ethical either.
The three things our users can see now are education, work history, and related connections of 2nd and 3rd degree connections, which as I mentioned before you can already see by visiting their linkedin profile website.
Things such as your email address, phone, etc. are not revealed. Beyond 3rd degree is unavailable to us.
