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.
Since Facebook was blocked by roscomnadzor nobody miss it. This is how bad it was.

Which ad blocker do you use that prompted this? I use unlock origin and response policy zones and I haven't seen this yet.
Ublock Origin and Ghostery (more for tracker blocking than ads, but it does both).
"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?
This will not end well. YouTube is very difficult to replace while Facebook has plenty of competitors.

Great. Can't wait for this update to reach mobile devices. More people need to realize how scammy these tech mega-corps are.
Reminder that Facebook hates you and pays people to develop ways to manipulate and control your behavior. Request to download your account data, delete your account, and go outside. It's less scary than you're making it and you'll feel better in the end.
