He made some great points. Whats so wrong with that?

The 15 second spot ad appears before EVERY SINGLE VIDEO I AM ATTEMPTING TO WATCH which has ads.  And it is not skippable.  I have seen the spot over 50 times, and find it overly simplistic in view.  Even if I agreed with the video's content, I have seen it and I can't skip it.  

I guess no one else is getting spammed here.  


adblock is your firend here. or stop watching youtube.

Does adblock stop video ads from appearing before a video you want to watch?  Sure, I can stop using YouTube, and stop watching content I want to watch, because of this guy.  And the moment his ad appears, I will often completely not watch the content behind it.  Yes, I am using YouTube less as a result.  I am sure that is what Google intends for ads to do on YouTube (yes they now own YouTuve), for them to get people to use their service less.
