I use the Firefox extension NoScript which helps blocking connections to external JavaScript scripts. Having a closer look at the blocked scripts just made my realize that steemit.com by default attempts to execute some JavaScript code on the facebook.net. I don't like Facebook very much and thus I would like to ask one question: Why?

Thank you very much to anyone who might have a clue about this.
