From the FAQ:

"Can Social Fixer hide the Sponsored ads?

Yes, just click on the "X" in the upper right of the box, and all boxes with the same title will be hidden every time you load a page."

There is a lesson here somewhere...

Does that mean https://www.facebook.com/adblockplus is next?
AdBlock Plus doesn't block Facebook ads for me. Am I using it wrong?
By default, Adblock Plus "Allow[s] some non-intrusive advertising."

You have to go into the settings and opt out to stop all ads.

You might consider switching to the fork Adblock Edge. Adblock Plus has some shady background and nowadays allows tracking and selected advertisers.
That right there seems like reason enough for $FB to remove the application.
