DescriptionUblock used to work fine on facebook. now I get ads that you can see and turn off and I get ads that slam into reels or videos. A specific URL where the issue occurs.https://www.facebook.com/Steps to Reproduceopen facebook and scroll down the page, Sometimes you can see the ad and hit the x. Try some reels or videos. it does not do it all the time, When it does there will be 4 or5 in a row. You are more likely to get an ad if you open it up full screen. Expected behaviorSometimes things are fine, then for 10 or 15 min you get one or the the other or both kinds of ads. Actual behavioryou can turn off one kind of ad, the other you have to close the video. ConfigurationDetailsuBlock Origin: 1.72.2
