Linked – Facebook rolls out code to nullify Adblock Plus’ workaround again

5269295051_31a102e6ae_m_facebookThis is like Cold War stuff. When do we reach mutually assured destruction?

For the record, I use an ad blocker. Not because I don’t appreciate that many of the tools and sites I enjoy need to make money somehow, but because in the process of doing so, too many are making use of insecure ad networks that have been distributing malware. If publishers can do something to prevent that from happening, I might think twice about it, but that’s not the current reality.
