uBlock Origin Gives Up on Facebook

uBlock Origin is no longer planning to keep chasing Facebook’s latest tricks to get ads past its filters. dev described Facebook as a “disgusting anti-user site.” They say Facebook has been repeatedly changing how ads are identified, watching open-source projects like uBlock Origin and changing its code to get around them. After years of this cat-and-mouse game, the small uBlock Origin team has decided it’s not worth constantly updating its filters specifically for Facebook.

An article-style meme shows the Facebook logo beside the uBlock Origin logo after explaining that Facebook keeps changing its ad-detection methods. The joke frames their ongoing conflict as a cat-and-mouse game and suggests that uBlock Origin is finally giving up on constantly adapting its filters for Facebook.
