| im just glad that kind of ads are only for mobile right now but it may come to desktop too sooner or later |
| I mean, I'm not usually one to boast this, but doesn't Adblock handle this? Or is this mostly a mobile thing? If this affects devices beyond mobile, you can bet more people will start to use Adblock in retaliation. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
| support alternatives to youtube |

| There only going to be 6 seconds so I don't care. |

| theres been unskippable ads for years tho |
| Stupid and greedy </3 |
traed said: @j0x Mobile firefix and mobile chrome can use adons normal browsers can. I used it just fine before. You dont need rooting or any of that shit. That does not block it from the app though. i see, i do not have a smartphone especially android phones so im only relying on news that i read, and i remember reading news that adblockers like AdBlockPlus are now banned from Google Play, but the workaround is that AdBlockPlus release a AdBlock Internet Browser on the Google Play and ye thats the problem if you do not root your Android Phone the AdBlocking will not be effective on Apps installed but if you root your device and use AdAway even the ads on Apps will be gone too i heard but rooting your Android Phone will make it lose its warranty though if its still under it |

| I trust Ublock will update if need be but I haven't had any with it problems yet, or I just won't watch youtube until it's sorted. adblock plus makes too many exceptions. Bunch of fucking shills. |
| Praise adblock TT~TT |
| Great. More reason to use adblock. |
| OH FUCK YOU YOUTUBE I hope Adblock will find a way around this |

| Don't worry. The nerds will find a way to skip these and the world will keep spinning. (Also technically this is how people get money from YouTube so maybe we should support certain creators by watching them?.... idk... I'm not trying to sit through ads though I just like playing devil's advocate) |
 |
| Meh, hopefully it'll just get patched (adblocks) soon enough. I've noticed recently, even with my YouTube AdAway (whatever it's called, been awhile) that once or twice I got a ad out of random. |

Reconsider your actions Youtube. I've never been able to get ad blockers to work on Youtube (not sure why) and so I usually sit through advertisements. I can safely say that I have never had problems with any of the things you mentioned because of Youtube advertisements. Considering the way Youtube ads work, I do not think it would even be possible for someone to include any of those things since they appear as videos. Protaku said: If this affects devices beyond mobile, you can bet more people will start to use Adblock in retaliation. Here's an alternative proposition- boycott companies which use the unskippable advertising format. Contact them and let them know how annoying it is and because of that, you will resort to buying from a competitor. I much prefer advertisements which are straight to the point. Many of them let you know about the product before you even can skip, and 5 seconds isn't that long to wait. Plus, if an advertisement is interesting I will usually sit through it even if I can skip. The only consequence I can see is being forced to sit through advertisements for products I don't care about or have no interest in. I'm sorry Tampax, but no matter how exciting your advertisement is, I'm never going to buy your tampons. |

| As people abandon television and watch only what they choose, companies are trying to weasel in and have their way with us again. They're ruthless. Skippable adds were annoying but bearable. I understand they need to advertise, but surely there are less intrusive methods. |

| at one point, ads were also unskippable on Chrome, but Google claimed it was a "bug" something tells me that the "bug" will appear again on Chrome.

| You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/. The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish. Show your support to your favorite artist if you can! ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name.

So you would not stop using Google, you would stop buying cars made by Ford, or Grammarly, or whatever companies start paying for unskippable advertisements. I would have thought that the part about Tampax would have made it clear that I was talking about companies who advertise using Google, not Google itself... |

| This gave me cancer -> “We like to think of Bumper ads as little haikus of video ads – and we’re excited to see what the creative community will do with them,” "Creative community" "haiku" ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? DO YOU THINK I'M RETARDED ENOUGH TO SWALLOW THAT BULLSHIT? |
 |
| I don't see how they can make 100% unskipable ads without literally adding them inside the video. |
| I anyway use adblock. And there are adblockers that you can install on devices without rooting it. |
