Removal of ads isn't even something I "advertise" as a feature. It's a side-effect of being able to remove anything you want from the UI.

And if they have a problem with that, surely they would have sued AdBlock Plus by now. Right?

As far as I can tell, they haven't sued you either. In fact, I don't think you've even received a letter from their lawyers. All that's happened is that someone at FB had threatened you.

Personally, I think they're full of it. I'd at least wait until you get an actual letter from their lawyers before making any decisions.
