Any major company that doesn't mark ads as such will be fucked hard by the FTC. The age of server blocking might be over but hiding ads (like the original ad blockers) is still, and will always be (unless the US changes its laws) trivial

>>56005041
When other companies start doing the same thing and wage full scale war against adblockers, what will you do? There is only so much an ablocker can do. Wait until they try to make it illegal to use said products on there domains

>>56005198

>>56005194

>Wait until they try to make it illegal to use said products on there domains
They can try. They'll fail.

>>56005210
If they can't. It's there website. They can do what they want with it. They don't have to allow you access if your running an adblocker if it's against there TOS. It might not be illegal. But they don't have to allow you access either for using Adblock. Those sites generally don't last long so I don't see what Facebook is trying to accomplish starting a war with adblockers.

>>56005234
>but they don't have to allow you access for using adblock
They have no way to definitively tell if I am using adblock or not. Any attempt on their part to verify what I have loaded client-side can be spoofed. Trivially.

>Update filters
Problem solved.

>>56005282
All they have to do is make there ads first party intrusive like Hulu. If you don't load the ads. You don't get to use there content or the website

>>56005295
Then people will move to another source of content. Pretty simple

>>56005295
Block element, select element, done.

Hulu can technically be defeated - you can block their ads, but you can't skip the time it takes to watch it (so you have a black screen for 20 seconds)

How can you not realize the irony of your post?

>>56005962
The ad still plays on TV and radio, which is a live stream everywhere and can only be blocked by either ignoring them or changing away from the channel hosting the content you want to enjoy. Meaning that the channel is still showing the ad somewhere, and generating revenue.

An internet ad is only delivered to you if you actively seek a site hosting the content you want, and only generates revenue if the server reports it as "viewed". There is no revenue generate with adblockers.

I'm not supporting it, but using such a brainless fucking comparison isn't acceptable, either.

Was that site made in 2002? Because holyshit it's bad, and not in a good way

>>56004981
There's a hidden element to the whole ad blocking "problem". And it's just politics.

It would be trivially easy to cache the ads and then serve them as coming from your own domain. Display them as website.com/img/unique with a back end redirect over to the ad network for that unique. Or from whatever CDN you use, and make them indistinguishable from your own content.

The reason this hasn't happened is because the ad networks don't want to cede control to the big website of what is served. Then the big website gets to veto or censor the ads, which hurts the ad network of course.

Ultimately, host based blocking remains effective because of this.

Greed has made this a rod for their own backs.

>>56007640
yeah that's pretty much what i do.

If it gets to the point where adblockers literally don't work (which it won't), I will simply not use websites that take this stance. I already igmore Forbes links even though it would trivial to block their adblocker-blocker if I wanted to. I don't even want to give them the page view, ads or no.

I hope this spurs a new "movement" where some websites purposely conduct business in a way that acknowledges the fact that people don't want ads. Kinda like how GMO and junk food created an opening for people to specifically market their food as "organic".

This. Facebook needs some kind of uniformity in the ads and adblock will exploit that.

>>56005234

They can block you but they have no power over what you do with your own machine.

They wont block you however since they make money off spying on you.

They cannot make it illegal to use adblock you are doing what you want with the info they send you.

>>56005330

Normies are already getting bored with facebook.

They are all tagged with a line that says "sponsored" on the ads, can't you just make a script that looks for that, and then removes the wrapper and content for that specific text line? Granted it's not a pretty solution, it should work pretty well.

>>56006135
>seek a site hosting the content you want

I dont have to accept the ad they didnt ask me if I would.

They can block the site if they want and see how that goes for them.

Ads are a fucking security threat how often have there been cases where the ads delivered malware and the site that had the ads was totally oblivious to it before it was too late and some already were infected?

You don't even have to rely on just UBO. Install FB purity, it gives you pretty fine-grained control over removing pretty much any element on facebook.

Also this >>56013690 is likely to work because the FTC gets mad if someone pays you to publish something (i.e., advertise) and you don't disclose that. There'll always be a "this is an ad" marker somewhere.

>>56005330
>turned off adblocker
Just uninstall your adblocker and modify your hosts file idiot. That way most sites won't notice you're blocking ad domains.

It's too bad we can't also find a way to basically send these trackers "garbage" random data character spit instead of things that say you are shopping for a new lawnmower and toothpaste and like slow walks on the beach. That would really piss them off not being able to use that data.

And as far as events go, some people just don't bother to inform you if you're not on Facebook and some still get pissy if you don't know to come to some event. It wouldn't be such a pain if it was just some casual stuff, but weddings and hobby relates stuff is organized there too. Ugh...

A channel is only 'decent' if you're interested on it. My channels are very niche stuff and somebody who isn't into it would think they're really boring. If you want something like a general purpose chatroom or whatever, those exist everywhere but they're shit.

>>56018318
>A channel is only 'decent' if you're interested on it. My channels are very niche stuff and somebody who isn't into it would think they're really boring.
I'm not asking for channels to go to, I'm wondering what the most effective way of finding channels that interest me and aren't dead is, as lurking in more than a few at a time is a pain and that makes it hard to efficiently search for channels.

>>56018407

Good channels don't exist by themselves, they're always linked to a site/community/project and that's how you find them. I got some of my channels via private trackers, others through translation projects of shady VNs, others from other forums and sites. That's how.

Would be so much easier if the companies would simply invest into less demanding ads. I wouldnt even block them if they didnt slow down my browsing experience by like 500% because of all the shit I have to load after turning off ublock.

If they actually do convince ad companies to let them serve first party (ie the ad jpg + link comes from facebook.com or fbcdn.com etc) they are in for a world of hurt.

One malicious ad slips through, bam, you got yourself a lawsuit since they served the ad first-party.

Traditionally sites got around this by saying "oh they're just renting the space, not our problem" but this won't work for first party ads

Facebook is an awful website that I only use as a central location with friends who are also using the site as a central location for other friends who are too stubborn to move, likely because they're using the site as a central location for yet another group of friends (I believe they call this concept "social networking"). Best you can do is spend some time looking at your privacy settings and using element picker on your adblocker of choice.

>>56005386
>>56005514
Whether it's on or off of facebook, I always see someone complaining about this. Twitter and other social networking sites have the same issues.

I think you guys just know shitty people or surround yourself with too many. There is no need for an obscenely large list of contacts unless you use your account for business. You won't know most of them, you won't ever even get to make an attempt to. Stop crying and learn how to talk to your friends instead of just sitting around complaining that some evil website changed them on some fundamental level. In reality, you're probably not a very good judge of character.

Host files are inferior as they tend to slow all of your shit down because 1: they try to filter every connection, not only the browser ones, 2: it redirects, not just blocks and 3: I doubt that you will ever manually update it.
Also, with a proper adblockers you can include host files.

I really hope this starts a war. It'll be amazing to see the outcome. You should be excited for this. Facebook is doing it because they're so big and a lot of the users use Internet Explorer with toolbars. So they'll stay regardless.

More websites will follow because they'll think it's safe and they'll quickly get BTFO. This is an amazing thing. This might backfire for Facebook pretty quickly anyways, but if they're doing it to begin with then they're ready. They're probably playing chicken. They know you rely on Facebook so they're trying to see if your family is worth it over the ads.

>>56023230
I explained why

>>56023237
Doesn't make for a very good explanation. It is trivial to check if a host is in a dictionary of blocked ones or not - does not incur a noticeable slowdown. You other reason is inane and your last reason is not even related. In practice, there is no noticeable slowdown.

>>56023253
>It is trivial to check if a host is in a dictionary of blocked ones or not

>>56023287
This. Connecting to an actual ad provider is much slower so it doesn't matter as long as you block them. And unless you have a shit connection you won't notice anything. Blocking ads from a hosts file is better imo since it doesn't limit you only to the browser and doesn't require an additional app to block ads on the go.

>>56005330
normies have been giving up on facebook for a while now. it's literally for 3rd world poorfags, old people, and straight up idiots (even by normie standards) these days. all the hip kids are on non-facebook social-media apps and games that are more specialized. no one wants to waste time looking at people's shitty pages.

Couldn't you like, download the base html file, and then in the local copy in your browser remove all links to the ads, and then continue to download the legit normal files (pictures, videos, etc)?
I guess the problem with this would be determining what's an ad and what isn't

This is less and less true. Sure YOUR machine is probably safe, and mine too, but for the larger internet culture, hardware ownership is changing to a subscription model. Then they can do whatever they want - just pay Verizon or Samsung or Lenovo or Microsoft or whoever it is to block ad blockers.

GOOD. Host ads on your own server, see what happens when YOUR server is a major vector for malware and you do nothing to stop it.

I had a coworker tell me about how he built a computer that has over a terrabyte of ram.
Dude lied about shit nonstop the whole time he was there. I know there was no computer.

HILARIOUS AND ORIGINAL

>>56005311
but how do you tell ads and content apart?

>>56005307
good luck doing that for spotify and youtube

>>56037915
Then we just make something new and make all the plebs use that instead.

ublock is superior for ad & annoyances removal, as you can also have cosmetic removal(in addition to the usual network filtering), which is occasionally necessary, such as when the ads are served from the same server as the content(some sites do this). Also, you can personally block site elements if you don't like them. It's rather useful for example on wikia which has these annoying "check out our other wikis" and other stuff.

>ublock hides ads rather tahn blocking the requests
you do realize you're shilling against uBlock free?
you can easily verify this yourself, right click, inspect element, network tab

that's one approach, note that this is a simplified version that would hit several issues in reality, but the approach would work.

>>56031112
that's what's being done right now, there are various blacklists made by people, which uBlock and ABP let you choose. By default there are a few lists selected.

>>56039047
Til you block the script sending the hash.
The serving articles as images is more practical.
Or not sending the article until the ads are loaded.
But that won't stop hiding.

>>56007685
That's what it seems like they will be doing. Just use the DomMutations API to see what they are up to and block the ads. gg fuckbook

>>56039149
>refuse services if the hashes aren't ok
then the website only serves you a message to remove your adblocker inplace of the content
as in, the request for content.html returns something else. You need to pretend to load everything(obviously) but replace the javascript with your own that simply sends the correct hash everytime.
see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y3K83sOnG8
for techniques like that in a positive context.

>>56039198
Ah, so send empty content with ads essentially, get hash back that it loaded, and then send the real content?
I see, I misunderstood, that'd work, but still not too hard to hide.

Alternatively, article screenshots like what happens with kotaku and gawker articles becomes more of a norm, with the ads gimped out.

>things they write and post revolve around what will make other people like their post the most

I spent a week or so checking out facebook and found everyone to be fairly despicable. Then I saw my list of friends without posts and I realized I liked and loved everyone on their there they're. I then realized it was the posts like-button behaviors that were despicable.
