I clicked "Show more" via the console until it stopped and then "clicked" every button and waited.

It's not a real solution, but at least I've voiced my intention to not be tracked by these advertisers. I wish deleting my Facebook was a valid option here, but as we all know they keep profiles on you anyways.




So I guess keep the facebook account because it's hopeless anyway? Way to be principled. How bout delete it and feed them less and stop being an ecosystem effect.

My friends from college for years were planning yearly meetups. 2 years ago enough of us dropped off FB that we started planning with email and MMS again. Quite a few more dropped as well last year and this. So it does work eventually


I haven't checked mine, but couldn't you have written a simple JS to automate this?


Yea, that's what I meant. I just selected the show more link and clicked in a loop and then selected all the "X" buttons and clicked them and waited until the network requests finished.
