Adblock blocks Facebook ads

Today I enabled my Adblock on Facebook and realized that it hides all Facebook Ads. Is it something new? Should we bother about it? I know that Chrome has Adblock implemented by default now.

I guess Facebook will do something to avoid it.

It's a little funny, because Adblock implemented in Chrome blocks ads on Facebook, so it should also block ads on Google. In summary Google Chrome would block Google Adwords.

What do you think?

I don't think advertiser gets charged for blocked ad impressions. Even if they do, Facebook will eventually learn that people with Adblock are the least engaging audiences, so they will optimise and not show ads to them.

Of course the're not gonna do that. The whole thing is a huge dirty move from google who will decide which ads they allow.
They transformed themselves in mighty gods and they will say all ads but adwords are bad.
Since it will be activated by default for million people using Chrome, all advertisers will suffer severe money shortage.
Winter is coming!
