I don't have fb or the youtube app and haven't for years... so I'm not sure what was doing it. I have ublock origin now, so if it's still happening I wouldn't know.

Honestly the thought of them pouring that much money into r&d and launching that spyware just to have us plebs block the end result(ads) does feel kinda good at least.
