Is there a reason to emphasize “skippable” here?
Comment on Netflix puts AI ads in paid tier: pirate EVERYTHING at this point... 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️ 14:55

It clearly says it’s on the paid tier only?
Not that I care much one way or the other. I’m still frustrated with HBO Max selling me “ad free” and then putting a skippable ad at the start of every video. It’s not ad free if there’s a “skippable” ad!

Because the app seems to think “ad free” can include ads as long as they carry a “skip” button. Which are still ads.

I use the Brave browser, so the ads don’t work thankfully, but yes, pirate all the things regardless.

Yeah ad blockers are great for that. I know from experience Peacock with ads will all be blocked if you have an ad blocker. But that only works on my computer not my Roku.
