I think Facebook counts you as active even if you're logged in, never go to the site, but see any site with a like button. I've blocked Facebook using both Safari Content blockers and my `/etc/hosts` file, but I wonder if they have other ways of attempting to count me in.
Please share all your FB entries to block
I use FanBoy's filters w/uBlock origin. Check them here: https://www.fanboy.co.nz
The reason I go with Safari Content blockers and /etc/hosts is because both of those solutions stop network requests before they even attempt to make a network request. uBlock is a good backup solution, but I want my computer to think Facebook doesn't even exist as a url, regardless of context.
For example uBlock won't stop iMessage from trying to load Facebook's inline media content when someone messages me a Facebook link.

This appears to be broken.
