    Why would you even assume? The info is in the linked article. Point being, if you’d read the article you wouldn’t need to make assumptions.

    YouTube started testing pause ads last year, as reported by Adweek. These ads will pop up as banners around the video and can be removed by hitting the “dismiss” button. They’re going to be pretty similar to the pause ads that Hulu introduced back in 2019.

      Idk, because it’s a joke and I’m not really that invested in the specifics of the latest ad garbage a tech company is pushing? Ads expand to fill all available space. If it can eventually become a video ad, it will. Just give it time. These things never go in the other direction.

        The back pedaling has reached the “it was a joke. I was only pretending to be wrong” stage. What comes next?

        Just admit you spoke without knowledge and try to do better in the future. It’s not that hard.

          …Except you knew it was sarcasm. Hence why you made your comment in the first place. Unless you thought I was earnestly praising Google for making new ads?
