Just block off *.facebook.com in uBlock Origin rules on Firefox (not possible on Chrome) or in system HOSTS ruleset. Leave out the fbcdn.net domain as it only acts as a CDN for videos and images.
Edit: fuck you GrapheneOS, for almost 2 months now, they are mass downvoting my comments, and doing voting manipulation, also abusing federation
netseer-ipaddr-assoc.xy.fbcdn.net looks to be tracking.
I see, they have started pulling this shit. Probably a good idea to disable third party scripts with uBlock Origin's medium mode. Atleast that way they will not be able to run their malware JS.
I use hard mode generally, but that sounds like a good reason for people using uBO easy mode to level up.
