Maybe. It depends on what kinds of guarantees they'd give around use of my data. I don't really care about seeing ads per se, I care about invasive tracking and data harvesting.

I think I might pay $10/year to use Facebook without them looking over my shoulder.

By ads free I meant their core business would be about not tracking you and only providing services of showing you content your friends publish.

Like you said it depends on what kinds of guarantees they'd give around use of data. How guarantees can you give?
