How to prevent laptop from searching for wi-fi?

Question

linux

I have macbook OS Sierria and Linux. The next task is around me, a bunch of neighbors' wi-fi laptop constantly beacons that the guys I'm here here I am and catches all the networks in the area, how to prohibit this disgrace so that it stops catching everything and connects only to my hidden network and stops vacuuming all the networks around.
It is interesting to really ban, and not just hide the list. Tell me where to dig on the Internet, all requests lead to just how to turn on this disgrace.
