I'd be looking at that Greg Reid fellow...... started a FB Friends thread, then this. Coincidental? He may be the Facebook Agent Provocateur.

I got hit this morning. In responding to a CH post, I hit QUOTE on another members post. When I touched the field to type, I expected my Android keyboard, but got the FB login page.

Moved to the 2015 version, but it's harder to read on my phone. Doesn't present well either. See screenshot below.

Hoping y'all can figure out this intrusion and block it.

For reference, I recently moved my PY to the Brave browser from the big G. Couldn't find a site blocker to block fb.

Yes, IPad here as well with 2015 version, no issues. But, the fact that others are having issues means something has been compromised.

I never went to 2017. Always used 2015. Never an issue.

I was just beginning to wonder if that idea might pop up in someone's head other than mine... LoL

Seriously, it did cross my mind that maybe me starting this thread and us using the FB word over and over triggered something intrusive. How many times have you seen an ad pop up on your phone for something that you were talking about at your dinner table?
Hey, just because I'm paranoid don't mean they ain't watching!

Ok just tried to reply to another post and it sends me to Facebook? Same with this post. Had to do quick reply? I don't have facebook and never did. What's up? I'll try the 2015.

Has this been fixed yet? The font size on 2015 version is so small I can hardly read it.

I believe we have the issues fixed. All can go back to 2017 layout if you prefer that.
Let me know if anything still has issues with it.
