Actually, content creators get to ask you to agree to a "Terms of Service" that gives you access to that content. If you don't like the terms of service, you could say they are "laughable," but that doesn't mean they don't exist, or have a specific meaning.
It seems very clear to me that a page that promotes the removal of Facebook ads, via its software, fits squarely in violation of the agreement.
Facebook seems very reasonable in this -- they're giving him a second chance, after blatantly violating the terms of service. And yes, it is blatant. Anyone who thinks that removing Facebook's ads are compliant with the Terms of Service is living in the world they wish exists, and not the one that actually does.
- mattkruse 13y agoRemoval of ads isn't even something I "advertise" as a feature. It's a side-effect of being able to remove anything you want from the UI. And if they have a problem with that, surely they would have sued AdBlock Plus by now. Right?
- alextingle 13y agoAs far as I can tell, they haven't sued you either. In fact, I don't think you've even received a letter from their lawyers. All that's happened is that someone at FB had threatened you. Personally, I think they're full of it. I'd at least wait until you get an actual letter from their lawyers before making any decisions.
