Hey all. I’m wondering where/how/if I can restrict my facebook profile so that certain groups cannot see my friends list.

Under basic directory settings click on the link that says “View Settings”
Then find the setting called “See my friends list” and click on the drop down box that probably says “Everyone”
Click customize and then it looks like you’ll have to hand enter who can or can’t see it (but I really haven’t played with it).
I assume this would automatically mean people that aren’t friends or friends of friends of friends wouldn’t be able to see it either.
