Too bad Google doesn't want to have a conversation, at least one that isn't at gunpoint. I wouldn't mind unintrusive ads. If it stayed at banner ads and things like that, I would probably enable them. Shoving crap in the middle of videos just makes it a horrible experience, so I'm going to get rid of them.
