Ya they do.

During election time if I watched the odd youtube vid at work I would get bombarded with these shitty Massachusetts political ads (all company traffic is routed through MA for some reason). That's mostly gone now, but it was still fucking retarded.

I mean... it's still free, right?

1/11/2011 10:38:46 PM

More than that, there are ways for every single mainstream desktop Web browser to block ads (idk about mobile browsers).

1/12/2011 3:48:01 PM

Just subscribe to EasyList and all your problems will be gone

also take a gander at Fanboy's Adult list for adult ads

and MalwareDomains and Malware Patrol for protection against straight-up malicious sites

I honestly never knew youtube had ads until there was a lifehacker article about them. I have never once seen one. Thanks, AdBlock!
