Re:Ask HN: Is it just me or has YouTube gone fanatical on ads? on Sunday December 01, 2013 @07:47PM (#6830388)
That would be gould if there weren't ads that last 20 seconds or 30seconds long without a skip feature which is what I have had to deal with and was forced to use Adblocker Plus. Now I don't have to see such stupid ads.

1. Presidential Smear Campaigns (I hate those because it really is a matter of choice for the person voting isn't it...Who cares who did what let the voter decide)

2. Movies I don't care to see (Reality TV Movies and those numerous remakes).

And anyothers I hate.

i have had a lot of problems with Ads. Ads used to be ok and not as bad as they are now. They are as bad as those pop ads that used to show up on websites. But no matter what argument is raised as to how good or bad ads are I will always use an Adblocker. And Yes Google+ has gone Fanatical with the Ads ever since they bought out YouTube and I am fed up with it.
