I definitely see them in the US. Trailers are just as unacceptable as ads.

Interesting, I wonder whether there's a plan age or other threshold — I've never seen one, as a Netflix customer since the 2000s.

What shows or movies have you seen trigger pre-roll ads on Netflix? I'm in the US and have never seen one.
