Allow advertisements is disabled in Preferences, but some ads, especially Facebook ads, bypass the filter. I've tried adding some custom lists to /home/.config/epiphany/adblock/filters.list
but they didn't remove the facebook ads. Nothing changed compared with the default easylist.txt.

In my humble opinion, just try to install Firefox from app center or via terminal and use ublock origin and Facebook container plugins in Firefox.
I get rid of the Epiphany in terminal
sudo apt remove --purge epiphany
Then
sudo apt update
And installed Firefox
sudo apt install firefox
Then some clean
sudo apt autoremove
Problem solved.
By the way read this thread on reddit,. where is explanation that founders of Elementary OS use chrome. Big LOL. Videos from YouTube and other sites not playing properly in Epiphany?
Open Epiphany Browser
Go to settings Top Right Corner
Click on Preferences
OR CTRL + E
Uncheck Allow Advertisement
in general Tab to block ads .
