Then normies should not actively be trying to make the service that is indispensable to them non-viable.
Either you need to use it, in which case you should not try to sabotage it, or you don't, in which case you should not need to sabotage it. So what is the point of attempting to sabotage it?
- jasode 2y ago>to sabotage it? I don't understand your choice of the word "sabotage". The thread's article is telling users about the official Facebook approved ways to turn off some ad preferences. This isn't UBlock, or Pi-Hole, AdNauseum, etc. Similar to official Google method to turn off some ads settings in Chrome: https://www.techlicious.com/images/computers/chrome-enhanced-ad-privacy-settings-670px.jpg https://www.techlicious.com/images/computers/chrome-enhanced... If users have those 3 advertising settings in Chrome turned off, is that also "sabotage"?
