I don’t really use facebook anymore so couldn’t care less; but so happened to log in today to change my password and saw this on my front page.

I don’t care for Facebook one bit… but it’s alarming to see ANOTHER platform trying to block adblockers. First YouTube, then APKMirror, and now Facebook. Great… can’t wait to enter the adblocker blocking web era. Fucking Google, always making shit worse.
Anti adblockers have always been a thing. Every month or so in the past five or six years I’ve come across a site that demands that I deactivate my adblocker, to which I’ve said “lol no” and moved on.
Yeah it amuses me that someone somewhere must be like ‘gosh they are blocking our ads’ when in reality if they shame me for blocking their egregious ads I usually just go to a different site rather than update my filters.
I have started seeing anti adblockers banners since last year or two way before YouTube started blocking adblockers.
