Yahoo tries to stop users exporting contacts that originally came from FB

2 points by seagreen ↗ HN
Yahoo tags all contacts imported from FB as "Facebook Contacts" which prevents them from being exported. It used to be that adding them to a list removed the tag, as described here:

That no longer works. The only way to remove the tag at the moment is editing the contacts individually.
