Nirmala,
I’m wondering if any of the more aggressive solutions you are talking about are permitted under Facebook’s rather extensive terms of use agreement. Using tools Facebook itself has provided is one thing, but do any of the ad blocker tools you’re discussing present a problem? How will Facebook react? I know the terms of use change from time to time.

Hi, Nirmala,
Thank you so much for sharing this article on Google Plus! Like almost every Facebook user, I too am tried of those ads floating around. And the worst part is it makes it difficult to concentrate on the posts. I understand that the owner is trying to earn money, nothing against that, but the fact remains that too many ads spoil the experience. Considering I never warmed up to the network, it pushes me to deactivate my account, of course can’t do that.
The funny thing is, Adblock Plus is installed on the PC I use most of the times but had no idea that it would help with getting rid of ads on Facebook too. Now that I know, thanks to you, I will try it on my laptop.
Thanks once again for the information! 🙂
Have a wonderful day!
