    It's likely because they're restricting their Gamerscore and/or possibly their Games Played to people on their Friends List.

    What's is your ONE issue with your ONE console that you wish could Microsoft fix / improve ?

    I'd love to have notifications when friends come online.

    With the size of the new friends list, it would be a potential nightmare but how about restricting it to friends added as favorites?

    Restricting Friends List

    There should be a setting in his privacy settings you can change to block friend requests. That would make it so you have to enter your password as approval before anyone can be added to his account.

    It would be best to not restrict his access to LIVE, but you can restrict his communicates to everyone or just allow him to talk to people on his friends list.

    Can’t see who people are following on Xbox app

    If I understand what you are referring to correctly then please know that every individual has the ability in their profile preferences to set whether anyone else can see who they follow. Individuals may have restricted who can see their friends list (ie
    Friends Only or No One). If an individual has restricted access to their Friends list then there is nothing that you can do to gain access to seeing who it is that they follow.
