I remembered a scene of a black mirror episode: if the person looked away the ads will stop until the person watch it again and it's unavoidable ... I wonder if this will be a reality one day
Yes, the technology to do this is here, and they're just waiting for the consumer to be able to put up with it.
This is why I just set up a media server at home.
It's mine, you can't pump it full of ads. All the media is mine and those companies can go fuck themselves.
Sail those seas folks
Oh I have had a plex and then jellyfin server for almost 15 years. Yarr mateys
Don't worry your TV will just hijack the HDMI signal to inject its own ads
Not if isn't connected to a network. 😈
