My Facebook News Feed doesn't work after the last AdBlock for Safari update

If you use our legacy AdBlock for Safari extension and Facebook, you may have noticed that only one or two posts are appearing in your News Feed. You can't scroll down. Pausing AdBlock and whitelisting Facebook don't help.

We missed a bug in the most recent release of our Safari extension, in the code that monitors WebRTC requests. The good news is that the bug only affects folks using Safari 11 and later. We don't run the WebRTC code on older versions of Safari. The bad news is that the bug can affect any site that uses WebRTC requests, not just Facebook.

Disabling AdBlock in Safari Extensions Preferences and reloading the affected web page will get things flowing again.

We have a fix ready and plan to roll it out in the next few days. Thanks for your patience, and we apologize for the inconvenience!
