Throw this in your /etc/hosts file:

    127.0.0.1 spa.snap.com
and then just make sure you don't serve obnoxious mouse-over previews to yourself :)

Here's my full ad-block. I just add a hostname to it whenever I see an obnoxious bit of stuff on a webpage:

This is such an obvious anti-spam device I feel like an idiot for not using it.

It just never occurred to me.

Thanks.

hah, very nice. Particularly because I just tried to enter that into Adblock, and it's busy ignoring me.

Thanks!
