    Have the ads on YouTube gotten way worse over the last week? Seems like every other video I watch has an ad of over a minute leading into it. I was just watching a video that was 28 minutes and after about ten minutes the video stopped and an ad played for one minute.

    **** like this makes me hate the internet.

    I just had a cool ad for heavy duty gold mining sluices... I have zero idea why I would get that ad, but I watched the whole thing. Impressive.

    You are the only person I know to watch an ad in its entirety. I mute the sound and do something else for a minute. Just a miniature protest.
