Usually my back button on my phone already just does the browser back functionality when the browser is open, which does mean it gets hijacked. Sometimes if I mash the back button enough I'll manage to sneak a trigger throughout whatever dumb thing the site implemented to try to stop me though, so I'm loath to give them any other tools to try to detect this.

Long press on the back button usually works
