Am I the only one tired of comments starting with "am I the only one"? Because obviously you're not and even if you were, you're no longer to be. Sorry to sound rude, but this trend is... well, it was needed to be said. Anyway, yes, these are not only super distracting, but most of them are actually helping cheaters cheating with notes and stuff. Blind spots are not an effective anti-cheating measure.
