Active Noise Cancelation (ANC) was once a feature reserved for high-end, expensive headphones. This wonderful attribute can block out unwanted external noise, letting the user focus on whatever they’re listening to. Technology continues to evolve. ANC has since become much more affordable and widespread, and good ANC is getting scaringly good.

I recently wrote about trying the best ANC in the world and almost getting hit by a bus. Put simply, such efficient ANC is unsafe to use most of the time. With that in mind, we must set some ground rules and possibly make some habit changes too. Let’s talk about them.
