After some googling I found that the highlighting happens in the ListViewItemPresenter, which turns out to be pretty hidden. It's located inside the ControlTemplate of an ListViewItem, which is the ItemContainer for the ListView. The simplest way I've found to disable the effect is to simply override this ControlTemplate:

<ListView>
<ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
    <Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
        <Setter Property="Template">
            <Setter.Value>
                <ControlTemplate>
                    <ContentPresenter/>
                </ControlTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>
</ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
<TextBlock Text="List Item" />
...
<TextBlock Text="List Item" />

Look at this question: Disable cross-slide selection for a listview

You can also make changes to the template to remove any visual states and adornments - go to the designer and right click your ListView/Edit Additional Templates/Edit Generated Item Container (ItemContainerStyle)/Edit a Copy... - that will extract the template you can modify using your preferred method.
