They could have definitely implemented it better. What comes to my mind is showing the ad only when the shiw is stopped and mouse was inactive for 5 seconds. This way, you could just jiggle your mouse a little when trying to catch those easter eggs. Not ideal, but much better than regular ads IMO.
That’s a reasonable compromise, but it’s actually in direct conflict with the ad-sales team’s goals because they want to verify to advertisers that you are actually watching. Which means it’s unlikely to happen.
There is no mouse unless you’re watching on a PC
