Don't adblockers affect Facebook as well?

As a Facebook user, companies are spending money to show me targeted ads, but I never see them. No doubt this decreases their ROI.

Perhaps, but a major part of Facebook's business model is organic advertisement (pay-for-reach posts) which won't be affected by ad blockers. AFAICT as a user, that's an increasingly important part of Facebook.
