                    Fun fact: Ads can't show on your Facebook when you don't have a Facebook.

                        Glad I deleted my Facebook 3 years ago. WhatsApp is good. But WhatsApp will also get ruined by Facebook sooner or later. Guys prepare to leave WhatsApp at some point in future. Such a bad company.

                          Anonymous, 12 Jul 2017Does this also apply to the Lite version?I doubt it as it's mostly used to save data in 3rd world countries wouldn't make sense, but nothing official.

                            Hah I will use WhatsApp instead(from which a lot of data for my messenger ads must be collected)

                              Glad I haven't updated messenger in a year so i won't have to deal with all this bs

                                Well i guess not many people use adblock on android since it requires root.

                                  Yes Facebook, continue to give me reasons to continue not to use your services except for my Android apps to sync my progress.
