Sponsored posts are starting to defeat the filter lately

Looks like FB changed their code again, I'm starting to see Sponsored posts creeping into my feed. It specifically seems to only happen when the ads are from pages that other friends have liked.

I've attached a screenshot to show an example (I've blurred my friends' names)

I can block many with the following filter:

If… Any Post Content Starts With Like Page OR Any Post Content Matches Regex and[ 0-9]*others[ ]*like.*Like Page

However, this doesn't match the ads for things that my friends haven't liked.

(SFx Support Team) Make sure 'Hide Sponsored/Suggested Posts (2018-11-29)' is activated and at the top of your filters list, and that all other 'Sponsored/Suggested Posts' fillters are disabled. Right now, that is the best SFx can do.
