How to bypass Facebook "Social Reader"-type apps, to view content without installing?

If you're running chrome, there's Facebook Unsocial Reader that will fix those links

Rewrites Facebook Social Reader links to just be links and not require you to install.

Facebook Unsocial Reader rewrites Facebook's Social Reader links to just be Google "I'm feeling lucky" searches for the article's title. Now you don't need to install an app and provide your demographic information to the publisher of the content for content that's free anyway.


Some apps that ask if you would give permission to post on your behalf, or use your email, sometimes you can deny this esp. if it is a reputable company or trying to be (Yahoo, etc) and still get through without consequence. Not really a "best answer" but a work around if need be.
