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.

        Like it backfired for YouTube, it will be the case for Facebook. People become aware of them through the news it generates.

      While i like ublock and use it myself, i hope not everyone uses it! There need to be different adblockers. Same as just one browser, or one forum is vulnerable to different things, so would adblocks be.

        I agree that it’s better to have multiple options. The issue with adblockers I often see is that they are adware themselves when not malware. With ublock origin, you can block contents of various types and not just ads. I prefer people having ublock origin than any bad option out there.
