For Firefox users, may I recommend ShareMeNot (http://sharemenot.cs.washington.edu/). It also nukes the tracking behavior of Twitter, LinkedIn, StumbleUpon, Digg, and Google +1.

Or, if you are an Adblock Plus user and want to kill Facebook on non-Facebook sites, add the following rule:

  ||facebook.*$domain=~facebook.com|~127.0.0.1

Block all social garbage with adblockplus.

Better to have posted it after you've actually written it...

MVP. Sorry to disappoint :p

MVP stands for Minimum Viable Product. There has to actually be something for it to be a Product.

Maybe I misused the term minimum "viable" product. But isn't it a standard practice for lean startups to run something like a potemkin village to test if there's interest?

I don't see why I shouldn't do the same with an open source project.

Does everyone realize google tops Facebook by millions for cross site tracking? I mean ad scripts, stats scripts, +1 scripts, etc. etc. etc.

Good luck on blocking google, I cannot even turn off javascript for their domain because now their search requires it to function.

Yes, that is a very important point, precisely because people do not want to focus their attention upon it.

Google has gone from a company that does not do any "evil" to a company that tries to make a progressive / positive impact and therefore they feel entitled to collecting more information about their users than they ever thought they would need at the beginning.

In that sense Google is like the government in the original Austrian economics. From utility to expansive progressive force. But with what results this time?

Edit: this reminds me off the "Faceback" app from the movie Good Guys.

Great Idea. Hoping for a Safari extension soon.

The Disconnect extension for Chrome is pretty good for that:

i love it when stuff backfires on evil/annoying companies. god i hope everyone starts implementing the 2 click like buttons.

You would violate terms of agreement. But if it's a Chrome extension, what can they do?

Not a violation.
