I was on a sports site a while ago reading an article.
After a bit over the top of the article played an entirely unrelated video from that site because man they wanted me to watch their video content. There was no way you could have read all the article, you were guaranteed to be interrupted.
Out of curiosity I went to an article on their site that was just a video and started that video.
After a bit over the top of that video played an entirely unrelated video from that site.... on top of the video I chose to watch.

It was just mind boggling.
