Meta Plans to Charge $14 a Month for Ad-Free Instagram or Facebook::European users would have option to pay fee or agree to personalized ads, according to company’s pitch to regulators
I haven’t paid a dime and have had ad-free FB for years.
How?
On the desktop, I use Ublock Origin and FB Purity.
On my phone, I use Hermit to containerize FB Mobile and that’s routed through my app and web adblocker, Adguard. I literally haven’t seen an FB ad in years with this setup. FBP also allows you to turn off pretty much every annoyance on the site(you may know, if you like this then, people who do this do…)
Ah, on Android…
Ublock origin and the likes
Next they will target ad-blockers as reducing their income and trying to ban them using the shitty web drm stuff.
Add free doesn’t mean tracking free… they still gonna track you and sell your data to advertising companies…
