How To Hide Facebook Friend List?

Want to keep privacy who is in your Facebook friend list? Facebook announced new privacy settings that give user have additional control over what information to share.

I use Facebook to make friends and easier communication with family. It is not for business or dishonest friendship. I have responsibility to protect you (friends and family) from improper contact.

Easy Way to Hide Friend List

I believe you have went through the mandatory privacy settings wizard. But may miss out this settings, because they were not clear on it.

You do not worry, it can be done in two clicks with my help. :)

  1. Click on Profile on the Facebook top Blue menu bar.
  2. On Left Sidebar, click on the Edit box right beside your friend list (as below). Uncheck “Show Friend List to everyone”.

Now public visitor cannot see my friend list in profile. However, friends still be able to view each other.

To protect even more information, go to Settings > Privacy Settings to hide your personal info such as family members, address, company name, etc.

    Friends lists are STILL not hidden from strangers when u click this tab… When people have at least 1 mutual friend with you and they right click “See All” on the mutual friends box and either choose “Open link in new window” or Open link in new tab” strangers can see all your friends even if you chose to hide it on your profile… And with Internet Explorer just clicking “See All” shows the entire friends list.. face book have lied and many people think their “UPDATE ON DEC 10th fixed friends lists privacy.

    please everyone write to facebook to complain…they have tricked people into thinking they have given privacy back on friends lists
