It’s been for a long time but not overtly. (I’ve never used it, this is someone else’s screenshot)
Facebook splitting the word “Sponsored” to bypass adblockers – r/assholedesign
Holy shit that’s devious.
They also use all those uglified class names so you can’t easily target a class to block. They’re total bastards. The Facebook Purity plugin is hip to all these tricks though. There are some very dedicated and talented developers who have put in a lot of time and creativity to circumvent these assholes.
Yes, just like Pinterest. It’s easier to find a direct image URL using Network Analysis than Inspector.
iirc Pinterest just uses a div with a background image. Could’ve been insta though
If I inspect the element in Firefox, it’s a
div
with about 8 layers of randomly named nesteddiv
s inside, sometimes branching (but the mouseover border preview tool helps). It takes 10 careful clicks to reveal the finaldiv
and its background image URL. Maybe there’s an “Expand all” button, IDK.
