I don't like the way other peoples profiles appear on my page or mine on theirs. There's people appearing who I don't want to see my profile. Other than deactivating the account is there anything I can?. Danke F

I don't believe you can disable the feature entirely, but you can pre-emptively block the people you don't want to be able to be able to see your account.

Your profile will not be visible to them and you will not appear in their search results or friend lists. Blocking is mutual, so they will also become invisible to you as well.

This should stop them appearing to you as a recommendation, and you to them.
