Media Week: YouTube has unveiled the first results from its TrueView advertising proposition, which allows users to skip video ads, during a session at Media360 in Manchester.
According to Bloomberg, YouTube CEO Neal Mohan has expressed concern regarding the potential misuse of platform content by OpenAI’s Sora, an AI-driven video creation tool.
Shaz from TL writes: “Linus Sebastian’s media company, Linus Media Group, is under fire. From ethical concerns with videos, to allegations of workplace harassment.”
If you need (or prefer) to read video content on YouTube, you have options.
... now, whenever an unskippable ad comes along, I just click youtube away and go back to what I was doing...
Unskippable ads suck.
I use admuncher, sure I got to pay for it but at least it block out 90%+ of ads on any site.
hell my cousin even confirm it block ads on hulu
Its like 30 seconds people. It wont kill you to wait to watch justin bieber.
Complete PR at work.
Got to love the %
Example: 75% who watch a full ad are more engaged?
75% out of what? 10 people?
Being forced to watch an AD doesn't mean the AD makes you want to watch the rest of the video.
I click on a video for battlefield bad company 2, uploaded by a very popular person.
A tampon ad pops up that I can't skip for the first 10 seconds.
Now, for some reason, I'm more engaged in the video I wanted to watch anyway.
