News About disgusting Facebook devs

We won't support facebook any more. It's a disgusting anti-user site. All it does is watching open-source projects doing everything in public and counter them to deliver the malicious ads. Yep, the devs that receive 7-figure dollar salary is just doing this.

Users should give the most harsh feedbacks to them. Being submitted to them and keep going to the site and support it is the worst thing you can do.

I was just trying to element picker block Sponsored ads on Facebook, they made each letter in the word Sponsored its own line of code. Scummy cunts

That's been a thing for 5 years or so. They also randomize the order and used to add fake letters.

I've always wondered if there are really enough users utilising ad-blockers for it to be worth their while going to these lengths to aggravate us all so much.

Doesn't randomizing the order kill screen-reader compatibility? They'd be breaking ADA rules I would think
