I only watch music videos and very rarely a how to repair video.

I guess I sometimes see those in US TV shows ;)

I guess, never saw those as ads. Though now that I think about it, I have started to want to figure out what BuildZoom does with custom homes, why YC funded them, and why I should care. Maybe one day I’ll see enough hiring posts to google them ;)
- jefftk 4y ago> never saw those as ads YC companies pay money to put a message in front of us, in the hope that some of us will respond by taking an action that is highly profitable for them. Seems pretty clearly ads to me!
- weberer 4y ago>>Billboards >I guess I sometimes see those in US TV shows ;) Lucky. In Helsinki they're in every metro station, every bus stop, and sometimes just in random spots along busy streets. Oh, and every metro car has screens playing video ads.
- Semaphor 4y agoIt probably helps that I don’t travel much…
- cronix 4y agoIn the states, we now have them built into gas station pumps. So any time you get gas you have video ads blasting at you with some crappy loudspeaker.
- hyperdimension 4y agoI don't really consider this a solution since I'm opposed to ads creeping into everything on principle, but try hitting the first or second button from the top on the right side. That mutes them around 80% of the time in my experience.
