Ads in, before, and after videos suck.

But wouldn't be an ad, which is displayed during a paused video one of the least annoying? Because, when I pause a video, I'm usually doing something else (bathroom break for instance, or, when staying at the computer, doing something in another browser tab or in a different program) and I'm absent from the video. Also, I can mute sound easily (one push of a key on the keyboard - which is a workflow that has to be executed then in addition to simply pausing the video and therefore would be annoying).

Or did I miss anything else crucial? Do you pause videos and stare at the paused video without doing anything else?

Anyway, this probably won't be a problem if you use an ad blocker. Or if you download the video.

The tears of people subsidizing my having never watched an ad (by having premium) fuels me for this week. Bring on the disagreement, but this is going to be a hard week, I'm going to listen to 2-3 hours of YouTube a day, and never have to pay attention to it to skip an ad. And my cats will listen to it ad free all day when I'm not at home.

Same with the dozen podcasts I listen regularly.
