Well, it's always been a cat and mouse game.
Just earlier today, I got a pop-up on YouTube about how they would block me after 3 videos because I use an ad blocker. Jump to now and everything is fine again. Thank you, uBlock Origin!

they still try that?
i can't remember the last time i have seen one of those warnings.
I'm guessing you use Firefox? It's much better at evading that tracking.
I am assuming all of this trash is blocked by uBlock Origin?
Seems like it's transferred through a cookie and javascript, so in theory you can block it with ublock or noscript and the like, but a sure way to block is to not have meta apps installed on your phone (or not signed in).
I don't have any Meta apps installed. :)
That's the fun part. They come preinstalled!
