Facebook and Google blocking all ICO ads is anti-competitive behaviour by monopolists masquerading as consumer protection!
Same story as with the banks.
They know that ICOs are raising billions for decentralised services that will replace them.

Just look at how Telegram's multi-billion ICO threatens Facebook's WhatApp.
There is a decentralised App out there to replace every existing web based service that is so dominant today.

There is an opportunity to seek legal injunctions against Facebook and Google to prevent this illegal misuse of market power.

Who is interested?

This is political move to work against Russia. Russia gonna make the bitcoin and other crypto currencies as legal to use there. On rise against America using the Google to ban the bitcoin related ads on Google search and other services of them.
Personally I take this as to secure being anonymous. Already being long years Google steal all our search and takes that some ad companies. Better to turn towards to bing browser or baidu.

When decentralized network platforms are developed, this problem will disappear, facebook and twitter will not be popular in the future

Unless, of course, they themselves switch to a decentralized platform

Google Facebook ICO ad block is illegal anti-competitive behaviour! I'm sure this is because google does not get any benefit from ICO, it's the same case in the last few months where facebook and twitter prohibit ICO advertisement in its company, if ICO can share a little profit for google then this problem will be finished.

I was sure that such measures of blocking advertisements were taken for security so that people did not invest their money in dubious projects that deal with fraud and there are a lot of such projects. But to follow the path of prohibitions is also a bad idea, because there are many projects that want to make this world better.

Yesterday I heard about the news that facebook is blocking advertising, but when I go to the projects pages all ads are displayed and nothing is blocked. maybe it's just fake news

I agree that ICO projects collect millions of dollars to develop decentralized applications, but I doubt that most of these projects can somehow develop something. Most projects do not develop anything after ICO. Therefore, I doubt that any of these projects will be able to displace such companies as Google, Facebook

Its a well established fact in the high tech startup sector that only a small percentage of funded startups succeed. In the VC world they hope for 10% of the very carefully vetted projects they fund to succeed.

ICOs will be no different, but the ones that do succeed will change the world - and that's what the incumbent monopolists are scared of.

My fb account was suspended twice, just because my ICO related posts were considered as spam.
I admit that using fb (which is a free tool) to make Bounty and earn a little money can let them "angry" not to have part if these earnings.
For legal issues against fb... without me.

Just create clone fb maybe fb2 and no monopol with Facebook.

This is exactly what some ICOs are trying to do!
Which is exactly why its anti-competitive for Facebook to block fundraising by a competitor.
