Mask Facebook Title and Favicon – Greasemonkey

2 Comments

There are times where you don’t want to show that you are on Facebook. I decided to create a simple Greasemonkey script to do just that. This script removes the favicon — that icon that shows in the tab — and it also sets the title to “Page Not Found – Facebook.com”. Hope it has some use for some.

Download – mask_facefook.user.js
