And I have a problem with ads that are forced on me, true, my case may be extreme, but I'm sure that it annoys other people too.
- eli 14y agoDepending on your browser, that seems pretty doable with a plugin. I assumed ad block plugins would nuke video ads anyway -- is the issue that they are preroll and hard to filter? At the risk of getting into an ethics debate, that's sort of the deal being offered by the publisher: you get the content in exchange for watching this ad.
