Looks like Facebook is following youtube with anti-adblock measures. - Infosec.Pub

I don’t really use facebook anymore so couldn’t care less; but so happened to log in today to change my password and saw this on my front page.

Ad Blocking is Cyber Security, never ever let anyone convince you differently

It’s true. I work in a computer shop and we see literally thousands and thousands of dollars lost from people clicking on ads that look like normal buttons (things like “Download”, “Next”, etc). And not just the elderly either. Everyone has a a combination of inputs to get scared and comply. Folks that are otherwise extremely competent and savvy can get scammed too.

The best security you can have online is adblockers, only beaten by using trusted websites.

But what websites can you trust these days?

YouTube? Serves up scammy bitcoin ads. Google? Places ads as “search results” Twitter?

Maybe that one website unchanged since 1998.

You can’t trust any website 100%

You need to continously verify and reverify the details you can.

Space Jam?
It was updated when the shitty new one came out :c
I can totally trust the hmph site.
End of the Internet
