Hide 'Seen' And 'Is typing ' feature in Facebook !!!

When seeing this feature for the first time, it was like 'Wow a great feature..!', but when Privacy is concerned, no one needs it. This 'seen at' feature is great one to confirm whether your friend saw this message or not, but it is quite uncomfortable when others get to know that you have seen their message and not yet replied. Especially, in case of the one you wish not to talk with.As soon as this 'seen at' feature was added to Facebook, many addons & extensions were released to save people's privacy by hiding this feature. Unfortunately, leading browsers deleted those addons in the name of spam.

This method can be done only with the most famous & legit addon 'ADBLOCK PLUS' which is available for almost all browsers. 'Adblock' is an extension which wisely removes all the ads & unwanted popups when you browse through internet and boosts the speed of your browsing.

Download Adblock Plus for
