They're adding a new feature to Xbox Live tomorrow that lets anybody view your friends list. If you don't think that's a good idea, you have to manually opt out by going to this web site: http://xbox.com/fof/

Seems to me M$ ran out of ideas. If anything they should have the people manually opt to allow people to see your friends.

It's supposed to be done in order to meet up or locate friends whom you might not know their Live tag, or people you like to play with. For instance, suppose I play with Ammo on Kai, and I know he has Live, but I don't know his tag. I know Bless has Ammo on his XBL list, and Bless is on my XBL list, therefore i check Bless' friendslist, and in theory I can find Ammo and add him to mine. Some good it does me when Ammo's name on XBL doesn't have Ammo anywhere in it.....kind of a pointless feature, but could be useful at times...

The best part is now if you piss somebody off they can now harass you AND your friends.
