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.
Uh yeah, I paid for YouTube Premium, I purged my accounts on Facebook, they are not the same. It does make me happy when platforms that abuse their privilege like Facebook begin doing things that will bring them closer to their end.
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.
I have started seeing anti adblockers banners since last year or two way before YouTube started blocking adblockers.
I love how both Meta and YT will Barbara Streisand Ad Blockers into the spotlight. Most people do not use ad blockers and all these News will make them more aware of it.
Oh no! I'll have to keep on not using Facebook.
Which ad blocker do you use that prompted this? I use unlock origin and response policy zones and I haven't seen this yet.
This will not end well. YouTube is very difficult to replace while Facebook has plenty of competitors.
"Your ad blocker is--" uh, uh, uh, it wasn't doing that before you pushed a malicious commit to make it do that from your side. How about you turn off your ad CDNs?
