Being real? Sponsor ads in video are fine by me. It’s no different than tv and radio did for ages. The individual vidiots hawking whoever sponsers them just isn’t an issue. It’s as easy the tune out as radio spots used to be.

If YouTube’s direct ads weren’t fucking obnoxious, I wouldn’t even object to those, but they crossed into obnoxious a decade ago with those.

It’s the freaking combined wall of ads that happens when it’s all together that is infuriating. You’ve got ads before a video, during, it, after it, splashed new below and beside it. It’s just crap, and gods forbid you misclick and go back, it starts all over again.
