I can't quite articulate why, but it bothers me that passing a new law was necessary for this.

- thwarted 16y agoAgreed, I don't know how much sense it even makes from an advertising perspective. When loud commercials start, we mute the TV and ignore it, not the least of which because it's loud enough to wake the baby. We are not being exposed to the advertising. Someone from Big Advertising a few years ago asserted that skipping commercials, even going to the bathroom during commercial breaks, was stealing, same as piracy. I find it odd that advertisers would actively discourage watching like this.
