I don't really understand how people put up with that right now, but it kind of tells me that they would actually do the laola wave and yell pepsi at their screen. I found my old VHS collection the other day and watched karate kid that i recorded as a child. I think it had 2 ad breaks who were really short, and back then we thought that it's getting a bit much with the ads. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] fine_sandy_bottom@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago You raise a good point. I'm much the same in that I just refuse to watch anything with ads. They really are dystopian and weird. I also get that same feeling when I see someone just grinding through youtube ads, but people that do that just don't seem to have any awareness of the interaction - it's just part of the show. The weirdest of all is when people (usually brave browser enthusiasts?) try to claim that "some" ads are actually a good thing because it makes them aware of some product they actually desire which they wouldn't have been aware of otherwise. I'll take blissful ignorance thanks. So yes, I can imagine people doing this stuff without really thinking about it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] elvith@feddit.org 11 points 2 years ago* Here you go https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/sony-patent-mcdonalds/ Edit: I didn't see the other comment, oops permalink fedilink source parent [–] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca [S] 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (4 children) Wasnt there also something about showing ads while your show is paused now too?
