on the one hand that's obviously evil but on the other hand, since most people won't disable it, i can totally disable it and the company won't care enough to try any harder at annoying me so yeah pretty smart on their part

imagine if, instead of a video stream, your tv received instructions to display a football game, like "nfl says to draw 11 players here and the ball over there" and "nike says to draw this ad on the side of the field". for commercial breaks, you get something like "fox sports wants to redirect you to a bunch of ads, then back to the game", but in fact the game is immediately available and simply paused waiting for your return. also your tv is a general purpose computer, and people have developed software you can use to make it ignore any instructions besides "show the football game". tv advertisers would lose their poo poo, right? so why don't internet advertisers seem to care? i know the answer is "because nobody installs that software, nerd"... which is great for me, because i get ad-free content and nothing happens to stop it except some pagancow posts. but how can you base an entire ad industry on a distribution model that's so fundamentally misaligned with the goal of ensuring that ads are actually displayed to the viewer?
