Block Ads for Social Network

Remove sponsored ads and suggested posts from your Facebook feed so scrolling stays about people, not ads.

Block Ads for Social Network hides sponsored ads and suggested content on facebook.com. Toggle blocking from the popup, choose what to hide, and track a local blocked-ads counter - content scripts run only on Facebook.

  2. Open facebook.com in Chrome and sign in as usual.

Permissions
Only storage, tabs, and Facebook host access - just enough for settings, popup status, and feed cleanup.

storage

Saves blocking settings (on/off, sponsored ads, suggested pages) and the blocked-ads counter locally in chrome.storage.

tabs

Detects whether the active tab is Facebook so the popup can show On Facebook / Away status and an Open Facebook button. Tab contents are not read or sent anywhere.

Host permission: https://*.facebook.com/*

Runs a content script only on Facebook pages to find sponsored and suggested posts in the DOM and hide them.
