I wouldn't consider it a "hack", but I'm always baffled by the number of people who don't use any kind of content blocker on the web, then complain about full-page ads, pop-ups, and autoplay videos. It's like going to a cheap motel with a lady of the night without bringing condoms.

More like going to a cheap motel and not expecting bedbugs.

Bed bugs do not discriminate. You can get them in the nicest hotels. Always check.
