Honestly, so long as these are “quiet” ads, that’s a decent place for them.
If they have sound that can fuck right off

“YouTube claims that the pause ads are actually designed to let the company offer you a “less interruptive” experience, but it didn’t tell us that its normal ads will appear any less frequently as a result.”

Lovely, so whenever you need to pause it to read something on the screen, an ad is going to block it.

If you have professional/training content, remember Vimeo exists.

I’ll simply stop going to YouTube when I see that with adblocker on. I will block it on my browser and find better things to do with my time.

It’s like they’re trying to make the user experience as annoying as possible.

I made this comment in the other post:
>I don’t know if there is also some extra fuckery going on, and this may be slightly off topic from the pause ad subject in the post itself but has to do with actually pausing on an ad – usually I can pause an ad when they play, but a couple of times recently I’ve been unable to pause actual ads themselves and have been forced to watch them, no skips or pausing allowed. So there’s that… who knows, maybe I got “lucky”. In any case I feel like that is even more sneaky and fucked up.

Buy premium if you don’t want ads. You guys are unhinged expecting everything to be free

Those assholes at Hulu have pulling this bullshit for a while. Want to pause something for a closer look? Well, fuck you, here’s a Charmin ad.

What the F has happened with YouTube lately. I’m trying to watch an 18 min video and 3 min into it I get a 47 min ad. Like WTF. And then there are like 2-3 more ads during the video. If I watched everything, my 18 min video would have like 1.5 hours of ads

Lol this company has its head so far up it’s ass it can lick its own tonsils. Can’t wait to pause a video because I have a phone call only for an ad to play. I’m just so excited for that I can’t wait.

There’s entire free porn sites with less advertisement than YouTube.
