You still see the frame the ad would load in, but the contents don't load.  Also blocks a lot of tracking.

Something really needs to be done

It is quite simple

The remedy that is

 

Log off of Facebook and never return, your account will never be deleted anyways. Stop the madness in its tracks.

 

By the way it is the 11/11 sale, that is why those chinese online sellers are advertising, not a scam at all really. Linus probably will do a video on it no doubt about that, but November 11 is November 11 and have to respect our armed forces, those who dont are the scammers, but cdn however well armed Canada's armed forces are with the antiquated shit our Government buys and has bought. Just need a mop really, the 11/11 sale will have some for a good price no doubt about that.
