I will not say I support the ads, but it is very interesting to see some of these scam ads that I see that played before videos especially the ones that talk about improving your sex drive. They are just very odd and I wouldn’t say concerning but just odd.
If your product or service was any good, you wouldn’t need ads. 🧐
I never wanted to wring the necks of anyone more, than to the dumbasses who thought making product jingles would be the key to making people buy. Like the Charmin one.
Revanced is alive and kicking guys.
So’s NewPipe and SmartTube, which are the ones I use.
Haven’t been able to find a podcast player with sponsorblock, though, so I continue to be assaulted.
The Yaris ads did this to me. I got so pissed off by their “It’s a car” commercials that I absolutely despised the product.
Were you in market for buying the car when you saw those adds? I you werent then they did not loose a sale even if you hated the add.
Can you honestly say, that if you were in really need of a car and there would be opportunity to buy a yaris with good price and it would be good fit to your needs at the moment, you would pass it just because some add you saw at some point?
Was it so effective you repeat the name of the product years later in some random discussion on the internet?
I think the adds worked pretty much as intented.
If I had the choice of the Yaris or another car, I would choose the other car. Because driving that car would make me at least low-level angry for the time I had it.
Amazon prime tv is awful with the forced ad breaks
In the inverse 5 sec content sponsored by for the whole video I may google the company
Also the more suspicious I get, and thus less likely to buy, the advertised product.
People are responding with ad block but as much as I hate them I kinda like being aware of what they are. Anyone who is confused about why our country is where its at go turn off your ad blockers for videos.
Yeah, no. I don’t need an advertisement to inform me that consumerism being propped up by imperialism is why everything sucks
Yes, I am never buying a Ride product again since it seems they were the only ones to pay Amazon for ads. I was trying to watch a show that I was having difficulty pirating and every damn ad was either for tide or bounty for some damn reason so never buying anything from them again since I had to see like 30 of those ads repeatedly. I usually muted the tv and just browsed my phone but for that first second the ad played I could tell it was for one of them.
Adnauseam and Sponsorblock should stop you from seeing most ads on youtube.
Stockholm syndrome
Consumerism! AHHHHH!!!
In my head this read like Queen’s “Flash Gordon” song. It made it all the more absurd and better.
