What's the best way to block this entirely? /etc/hosts won't work because it's not on a subdomain (the iFrame loads from http://www.facebook.com/plugins/activity.php). This would make a nice Chrome/Firefox extension.



If you're talking about blocking on the enterprise network, check out this resource. It's a whitepaper called “To Block or Not. Is that the question?”

It has lots of insightful and useful information about identifying and controlling Enterprise 2.0 apps (Facebook, Twitter, Skype, SharePoint, etc.)


I added http://www.facebook.com/plugins/ and https://www.facebook.com/plugins to AdBlocker's filters in Safari.

It seems to have removed all Open Graph stuff from the web for me.

A greasemonkey script to always click 'No Thanks'.


Any decent browser should be able to block content by URL. Use your adblocker.


My adblocker (in Chrome) loads resources before removing them from the DOM. I simply want to block this before the request is made.
