if you are getting the "three strikes and you're banned notice" then the best thing you can do to help the world is to purposefully get banned and then stop using youtube so that the data shows it

over 13 years i have managed to cultivate a recommended / suggested list from youtube which is practically flawless. i have not seen a clickbait video title in ages. nearly everything recommended is excellent viewing and/or episodes of long-forgotten media. and i'm willing to sacrifice it all rather than give a dime to an online video clip subscription site. i dont give a gently caress how many influencers you pimp. i'm here to watch my name is saad. namaste.

naem posted:why do streaming and youtube all have two really loud annoying ads that play multiple times in the same video? nobody in advertising / marketing actually knows how to make the number go up, they have just developed indicators of it over the years. one of these is ad spend.

Pitdragon posted:if google knows your personal browsing history they can make a prediction about what you are going to do next/what emotional state you are in based off your activity this really assumes way too much. like ad algorithms are some sort of demigod all-knowing terror. ads are exceptionally dumb. they are fired at you based on extremely loose associations of words, search terms, and app permissions. if you type something like "vacuum" into google you tick a box for household items, and so that's one of many ads you'll see. theyre just spreadsheets like anything else. more often than not the information contained in those spreadsheets is impartial and/or inaccurate, filled with garbage searches you've made over the years, and diluted and skewed heavily by the few 'positive' hits you have made on certain items. ads cannot know you better than you know yourself. they are automated but mostly dumb conditional-logic csv files with tons of bells and whistles. marketers like to pretend there is something far more complex at work but this is very untrue. it's no miracle that married people in their 30's might need a vacuum cleaner, or that men over 35 care about balding.

this is why you can disable personal results on pretty much anything. it barely matters (to the advertisers, to google, to the bottom line, and to the consumer). it only ever matters to advertisers in the situation of those super special "one person only" ads that are still very common and routine. and even they need to be heavily blanketed for regions if they have any chance at being successful. google sure likes to sell up their ability to fulfil personal advertisements but this is almost exclusively because google has your search record history (and advertisers don't). they barely do anything functional with it anyway, since there are millions of keywords and companies out there vying for your attention, but it's a "have" vs a "have not" sort of thing and it makes a huge difference to the landscape of their monopoly, mostly in terms of revenue. tl;dr ads are way less magical than you think. this actually makes them suck even more poo poo, to me.

Winkle-Daddy posted:this isn't even close to reality. when I worked for yahoo search marketing 15 years ago you were already behind on your technology assessment. i mean... i frequently utilize and also set up some up some of the 'modern' stuff we are using and its all just redressed spreadsheets, if/else statements, and timestamps made accessible through extremely fancy SaaS packaging saying it's just spreadsheets kind of diminishes the actual capabilities of having umpteenth amounts of data (and thus, being able to actually build 'targeted' ads based on science) but the reason i did is because, in the guts, it's still just a matrix of data about a matrix of people in a matrix of spreadsheets. theres no wizard of oz.

if any of that poo poo actually worked then [more than a small, severely deranged, group of] people wouldnt hate ads to begin with... since theyd be so useful...

I'm still having 0 problems with this and its either because: 1) I'm in Canada 2) I also have a chromecast which I didn't pihole and so every now and again if I queue something to the TV directly I do actually see ads, even though all my PC browsers have adblock Can anyone confirm either theory

I'm 99% sure Google is purposefully degrading my Chromecast 3's so that they frustrate me into buying whatever new, ad-supported version they make is. It's actually kind of amazing that Google has turned into the shittiest company. Sunrise sunset.
