/**
 * FocusGram DOM Ad Blocker (Fallback)
 * 
 * DEPRECATED: Use fetch_interceptor.js for reliable ad blocking.
 * 
 * This script provides DOM-based ad removal as a FALLBACK for ads that slip through
 * GraphQL filtering. It's not reliable because Instagram has already rendered the content.
 * 
 * Injected at DOCUMENT_END
 * Removes sponsored/posts/tracking elements from the DOM.
