From the thread: &quot;Facebook is doing this in response to Apple’s third-party cookie tracking protection that prevents FB from tracking users just by cookies&#x2F;embeds, see <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;webkit.org&#x2F;blog&#x2F;8311&#x2F;intelligent-tracking-prevention-2-0&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;webkit.org&#x2F;blog&#x2F;8311&#x2F;intelligent-tracking-prevention...</a> 11. With fbclid, Facebook no longer needs to rely on tracking cookies to track users across websites.&quot;

What is the best way to deal with this as an end user?<p>I see there is a Firefox plugin here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;addons.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;firefox&#x2F;addon&#x2F;nofbclid&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;addons.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;firefox&#x2F;addon&#x2F;nofbclid&#x2F;</a><p>But perhaps it is better to deal with at a lower level, like on the firewall. Any advice would be welcome.

Another dodgy move by Facebook, this time not only tracking people (potentially without their consent) but also disrupting internet traffic.
