Canal 6 in Costa Rica, actually covering a good chunk of the program for ads. And no, they don't move the program to a smaller box, they actually cover it. : assholedesign

In the NBA, they try to compromise by sharing the screen for ads during live gameplay. But the ad section is bigger than the game section.

Exec 1: We need to get our viewership numbers up! Advertisers are complaining about the price with our numbers so low. Exec 2: What if we just always show the ads, then everyone sees them! Exec 1: Great idea, it is good we are so smart.

People have agency and they should exercise it but this attitude is not proper imho

Dunking on idiots is fun and all but we all have to share this planet so ideally people can be educated on these issues so they can make better choices for themselves and society as a whole.

But yes dunking on normies is a guilty pleasure around this here communities
