#DeleteFacebook is a good first step.

The next step is to #BlockFacebook.

Check this file for instructions on how to edit your hosts file and what to add to keep your browser from sending requests to Facebook.

@starbreaker Hmm would there be an easy way to block Facebook _except if I'm at facebook.com_? I'm required to continue to use FB for work (and cannot change that no one hop on this to criticize me) but would love to truly limit my use.

@emsenn Can you limit your work-related Farcebook usage to a specific device?

If so, then you need only edit the hosts file on devices you don't use for work.

@starbreaker I can limit it to a specific browser but no, clients use messenger as their point of contact. I suppose I could like, messenger->pidgin and such... hmm...

@starbreaker I guess I should stay focused on the meta-goal, which is "get to a position where i can disqualify potential clients who'd make me use fb"
