There is this thing, you can add to your browser, to make ads go bye-bye.  An add-on if you will, that you can probably find by googling.  Look for it and all of your add issues could be kicked in the butt. 

PS  The Last of Us looks awesome.

hmmm, trying to make sense of your secret code... but I don't get it....


He either edited his post before you finished your response, or you're half blind!

He highlighted "adblock plus" (space added myself)


Everyone I knows was absolutely blown away when I told them it will remove streaming ads on Youtube.


Make sure you disable it for videos/websites you want to help though, as the ads they run help them gain revenue.

It's the "L" in Googling. No worries though, VGC's posting style makes bold letters not stand out very much.

This vad plays everytime for me on youtube



I trust no one, not even myself.

Haven't seen it before but so what? Just because he believes something different than you it doesn't make it all of a sudden this huge big thing that deserves attention compared to every other ad. If this video said the opposite and was pro democrats I doubt you would be so up in arms about it. Either just watch it or block it, don't hypocritically complain about it.

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.

So you are seeing it appear before about every video with ads on it, when you attempt to watch anything on YouTube?

I would complain about it.  There are other pro-GOP ads I don't complain about, for candidates, because you can skip them.  This ad you can't skip.
