Who's forgotten about it? I adblock at the request level everything from the facebook or fbcdn domains in my primary browser. I don't let FB get anything from my normal browsing.

    Adblock plus, most likely, coupled with Antisocial filter and custom rules.

      It sounded more like RequestPolicy than ABP, but there's nothing stopping you from using both, which is what I do.

  Make sure you get both the .com and the .net varieties of those domains.

What's so special about beacon ? It's no more business as usual at facebook, with the additional twist that it caused public uproar.
