How do I keep facebook out of my Contacts?

I do not want facebook to be able to link to my CONTACTS at all... especially not via Calendar!!

How do I stop it? According to Calendar ‘HELP” facebook and linkedin use Read Only explicits permissions to

bypass all efforts at Group exclusion!

MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)

You are completely misunderstanding how the Contacts application works. The Contacts application can show your Facebook and LinkedIn contacts. It does NOT work the other direction. Facebook and LinkedIn is NOT reading your contacts from the Contacts application.


If you go to System Preferences -> Internet Accounts -> Facebook you can deselect the Contacts in the list on the right. Then your Facebook contacts will not be shown when you go to the Contacts application.


You can do the same for LinkedIn.
