Also acronyms, again depending on whom you ask. At least based on my own instincts and online searching.
While your instincts may say so, not according to any one of the major style guides (AP, MLA, Chicago, NYT, APA, Columbia). An apostrophe is only added for possessives rather than plurals with acronyms, but a lot of people still add them erroneously. Most sources online will say "don't do it but some people do by mistake."
