Bug Description
Hello,
I am using the BQ phone. I have two google accounts registered in my online-accounts. The first account has access to all applications listed in online accounts. The second account is supposed to deliver only the calendar events of my wife. Hence I enabled for the second account only access to "calendar" and "com.ubuntu.
However my address-book lists all contacts of my wife even though no access is granted in online accounts.
The behavior not only affects the usability but is also a security issue.

To post a comment you must log in.
You can enable/disable contacts sync using the online-account screen. After you enable it once, all contacts will be synced to your device. Disabling it will block the contacts sync to happen in the future, but it will still visible on your contact list.
Until now we do not have a option to disable the contacts from a specific account to appear on your contact list.
I will add UX-team to the bug, they can help us to figure out a solution for that.
