This sucks. I thought "why not install an adblock," but not everyone thinks like that, and that's fair.

That doesn't work on the Facebook app. And then they block you for reporting too many ads. Facebook ads are late 90s era quality.

Not to mention fradulent.

Glad to see Facebook has the customer's best interests at heart.

To be fair if you try to block all ads you're not really a customer.

Users are not the customer - advertisers are. We don’t pay facebook to use it advertisers do.

> That doesn't work on the Facebook app.

Yet another reason to limit Facebook to the browser (a proper browser, too, not a Google Services Client masquerading as a browser that does not let you install adblockers on mobile).
