You have a 30 second unskippable ad for your product on this video? Thats a sure fire way to get me to never buy your product, ever under any circumstance.

That's like not even a really bad example

You know those ads that pop up or expand all of a sudden when you're trying to click something else?

I don't remember ads being this bad on the internet 15 years ago, and I didn't even have adblocker back then. You can't even enjoy browsing a website without constant popups and video ads and ads that take up 1/3 of the page.

I get that they are trying to counteract adblock but making it so bad for the people who do support them just pushes more towards adblock

Not more annoying but more ads

Half of your users use adblock, so make those who don't see twice as much and get the same revenue

Its robot logic

ads absolutely were WAY worse 15 years ago before adblockers. you'd get 1 popup and close it and it would just keep coming back. forever.

I love it when I buy a carburetor I get carburetor ads for like a month as if I'm some sort of carburetor collector

Or ads for games I already own

Whoever designs those algorithms isn't very bright

This. Like how do you make a 3 minute ad and think "no one will want to skip this"

I swear you used to be able to skip after 3 seconds before whereas now 5 seems to be standard and you get two ads instead of one

Use the Firefox web browser, it's virtually identical to it's dsektop counterpart now. Including the ability to install adblockers. Watch YouTube through the web browser and you wont get any more ads.
