I know, not the most secure but I'm more into it for making stupid JS design go away than out of paranoia of a script that doesn't visibly annoy me. Maybe I'll try ghostery or play with my NoScript settings. Thanks for responding!
Ah ok, so you are using uBlock Origins. I think the element picker feature (the eye dropper thing) took care of it for me.
As far as laziness goes, my uBlock Origin philosophy is this: try to run in a whitelist only mode if I'm not pressed for time, but as soon as I get a website running properly I immediately go through and globally blacklist (or sometimes just locally blacklist) everything I haven't whitelisted.
This extra step only takes a few seconds, and it means that if/when you get frustrated or
I think I saw those that a while back. uBlock element picker worked just fine on it, I think, so two clicks and its gone.
uBlock is more or less a replacement for ABP, Noscript and Request Policy, although I think there are a few areas that NS covers that it doesn't (like anti-XSS). GPL, lighter memory footprint than ABP and it comes configured with Easylist out of the box. Very easy to use once you understand what the boxes in the GUI represent and you can effortlessly switch and combine whitelisting

Anyone seeing these? Any adblock/noscript rules that defeat them?

Nope, never seen anything like that. What does it look like?
Browsing AC with uBlock origin, ghostery and noscript (last one but only partly blocking).

Er, sorry. That used to work just a week ago. Now they're served from a cloudfront.net url...
