Using CSS to customize webpages, sometimes several top layers must be
removed before getting to the object of interest. I keep count of the
number of overlying objects removed before getting to the object of
interest, then edit the CSS file to delete that number of prior
overlying object selectors. I had not considered that foul play, I just
figured it was part of the programming.

Most annoying is when they use what appear to be random numbers for CSS
object selectors. Strangely, seems they do that for some other reason
than to thwart ad-blocking.
