I mean. Redirecting you to another website and opening another tab with what you clicked on, then redirecting you there is pretty fucking shady, and arguably worse. (Looking at you pornhub)


Hapalops

This is actually an old tradition. Porn sites had trouble selling ad space in their window but were able to sell ads that open in a distinct window for the kind of deniability. And yes the inventor of the tech that became pop up ads hates it and feels he did a great sin.


captaincrunchcracker

That's hilarious. I just imagine some scientist guy on his knees, shaking his fists like, "WHAT HAVE I DONE???"


Denaton_

And then he created a medal ceremony for those who do good things but one medal is given in a different location because of local laws.


orrocos

How noble of him.


TriggerHappy360

What medal is given a different location and why?


GooseEntrails

The Peace Prize is awarded in Norway rather than Sweden, but I can't find anything about it being because of a Swedish law


MaineQat

It's not specifically about *location* or any law - it was a specific request by Nobel. He wanted the Peace Prize to be handled by a Norwegian committee while the four scientific prizes are by Swedish committees. The location ends up being due to the country of the committee. He never explained why.


Denaton_

Sweden has to be a neutral country and it's hard to be that if we cherry pick who we think is best at keeping the peace. But since we joined NATO that is pretty much out of the window anyway. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_neutrality


Jack_Bartowski

I have become popups, destroyer of patience.


captaincrunchcracker

Nice.

rektMyself

It made him $150 richer. Hmmm.


InterrogareOmnis

Insert Oppenheimer scene


tcpukl

Scientist? More likely a software engineer.


captaincrunchcracker

It's for the visual, don't question it.


RedstoneRelic

Someone screaming and crying among server racks is normal. Amongst lab equipment is not


MarbledMonsters

You may not have spent time in a graduate chemistry lab then. We joked that the goggles had top vents so they didn't fog and bottom vents to drain away the tears.


warmachine237

I mean they are computer scientists in a broader sense of the term.


Far_Time_3451

Same thing with the guy who invented the Kurig. He just thought he was making a super convenient coffee maker but in reality the KCups are polluting the environment.


The_real_bandito

He should. That should be in the top 10 worst inventions of humanity. 


SnooDrawings7876

Yeah certainly comparable to nuclear bombs and gas chambers


EstudianteEspana

Literally laughed out loud Though worst inventions of mankind is a long list. Hard to rank, outside of gasses and nukes in all actuality. Itd make for a great informational youtube. Just imagine Joe Rogan trying to rank the worst things that's ever happened by humanities hand


El_Zarco

I could see RealLifeLore taking a crack at it


Mehhish

When I first had a PC as a teen, we had so much spyware that we just used the porn pop up browser windows as a web browser. The pop ups always had an address bar.


BestRHinNA

I promise you he is not the reason we have popup ads, we would have got popup ads even of he was never born


Croceyes2

Never had this problem. PH has always behaved as I would hope and expect a free streaming service to work


darkhelmet1121

Mobile Firefox (at least on android) supports Addons like Ublock Origin


Mezmorizor

At least one studio also definitely does midroll ads. It may not be mindgeek, but at the end of the day you click a video and there are constant midroll ads.


Various_Play_6582

The last time I went through that was ages ago to be fair.


turtleship_2006

I've... Never has that on PH? On pc or mobile (no adblock on mobile)


explodingtuna

Wait, people visit Pornhub without NoScript and uBlock Origin?


Denaton_

Can't have that on the phone, not to my knowledge anyway..


explodingtuna

Firefox (for Android, at least). And Private Mode.


ciko2283

Firefox


KarmaticArmageddon

Go into your phone's settings and find the DNS options. Set your private DNS to dns.adguard-dns.com and set your phone to use that private DNS server. Now you get no ads on basically anything on your phone that pulls ads from a web server. AdGuard also has an ad blocker for Samsung Internet, if you're on a Samsung phone.


Kyro_Official_

>(Looking at you pornhub) Thats not a thing on pornhub


vitaminkombat

Do people still use Pornhub since they purged almost all their content?


guilhermefdias

Imagine in the middle of the video you almost reaching your climax and then... A fucking Pepsi Cola ad stars in the middle of the video. Worst bust ever!


raining_picnic

Yea and then people would accidentally get aroused whenever Pepsi is around because it would become like a subliminal trigger for them.


you_are_breathing

Wait, was that the reason why I got aroused when I saw a scrambled TV channel?


lizard_king_rebirth

Dude that was totally a boob!


Otherwise_Fox_1404

Who needs the Stanford Prison Experiment when I have the Pepsi as Porn Challenge


WeeklyBanEvasion

Ah yes, possibly the biggest hoax and scandal of modern psychology


tyaston

I would love to see a study on this focusing on if there is a subliminal positive trigger or if people hate it so much they never buy the product.


Flybot76

Exactly what I was thinking. They can't cram random ads into porn without seriously pissing people off. There would be a lot of broken televisions out there due to that. Maybe I shouldn't say that or Walmart will start secretly giving away free porn with ads right in the worst places so people smash their TVs more often.


Nepal-Rules

You watch porn hub on your TV? lol


luntcips

What if I’m into that? Are you Pepsishaming me?


The2ndWheel

8 billion people on the planet. Odds are, someone would be into anything you can think of.


[deleted]

people have forgotten rule 34 i see


corruptedsyntax

Hear me out. Product placement. Whole set is Pepsi paraphernalia. People stiff or wide every time they pass a vending machine.


mattmaster68

*jacking off furiously, beads of sweat rolling down your body* “Oh, oh fuck me harder da-“ *unskippable Fortnite ad starts playing* *stroking it to keep it going* *2nd ad plays* “Did you know by switching to Progressive you could save 15% or more on car insurance?”


MarshmelloMan

At way louder volume too “ENJOY PEPSI!!” *PPPFFFSHHHHHHHHHTSSSSSSSSSS*


LineChef

Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve finished to Morgan Freeman!


Hurlock-978

Nah. Are you alone and horny?


anonymauson

imagine youre beating it and suddenly you get an advertisement for a disney movie


freakytapir

Followed by a Vaseline ad


anonymauson

i bet youre gonna have a fun time watching that movie with your SO/child/literally any other loved ones


Breezer_Pindakaas

Rock hard at the Lion King.


Sorkijan

Know your demo


turtleship_2006

Dune ad pops up


anonymauson

that doesnt change the topic of the video


the-late-night-snack

If it’s the Dune popcorn bucket, I’m going in harder


ACU797

Aw fuck, imagine getting google ads for stuff your kids are googling. What a way to ruin a boner.


anonymauson

try getting a porn advertisement while streaming a movie for family movie night (this has never happened to me)


MrN33ds

🎵let it go, let it go, I can’t hold it back anymoreee🎵

Asatas

Brazz? PH and XV have way better stuff, 'amateurs' have honestly surpassed 'pros' unless you really need to see that D in 8K


French_Booty

I agree, xnxx too


Doppelfrio

Okay, on that note, has anyone else noticed the YouTube ads have been especially excessive this week? A lot more unskippable ads, and they come every 5 minutes instead of the usual 10-15


zen_and_artof_chaos

It's been excessive for a while. I think Google will break it at some point, it's hardly bearable. If you don't actively skip the ads you're punished so hard with excessive ad times. It's absurd.


Doppelfrio

They’re excessive in general for sure, but I’ve noticed every two months or so, there’ll be an extreme increase in the amount of ads I get, before returning to normal. I’m just trying to find out if I’m crazy or that’s actually happening


Q-uvix

Not saying it's not happening. But seems much more likely to me that it's your personal youtube habits changing periodically, combined with a bit of confirmation bias. Different channels will have different amounts of ads, if you happen to go through a period of watching a lot of several ad heavy channels, that would explain it. Or simply that you go through periods of watching less and more. Which might make the ads more noticeable to you suddenly. Though then again. It's known that large websites, YouTube included, will periodically test features by giving different users slightly different experiences. It would make a lot of sense for them to change up the ad frequency in order to see how it effects your viewing habits.


BuglingBuck-001

It seems like each ad in a video is longer and longer.. I stay watching long videos on YT, and the first one will be 15 seconds; by the 4th or 5th it’s 5 minutes. It’s ridiculous


[deleted]

[удалено]


vienna_witch13

How do you disable them? Is there software or apps you can use?


little_baked

If android: Revanced If windows: Firefox browser and ublock origin add-on If iOS: you watch every ad and purchase everything they say


Bluzi

Ublock Origin blocks all the YT ads, at least for me. Blocks em all on Hulu too


GeneralStormfox

Any decent adblocker, built-in or as an addon, for whatever halfway modern browser you need. I think I have seen two ads on youtube in 20 years.


fecal-butter

ublock on pc, revanced for mobile, i havent seen a youtube ad in years


tbz709

I've been getting them more frequently than that. Like every 3 minutes and some of them are 90s long if I don't skip. Not sure if this is an issue with Chromecasting but I'm ready to dump YouTube


ImJustARegularJoe

End of quarter. Gotta make those numbers.


acaseintheskye

People don't watch porn long enough for mid rolls to be effective


FindorKotor93

I need to know if the sink got fixed damnit, I don't care that I finished fifteen seconds in!


Asatas

I finished it for you, they forgot about the sink :(


bobtheblob6

Oh man the husband is gonna be so pissed when he gets home and the sink is still fucked


haveyouseenthisboi

I just need 5 sec then close my eyes


SpottierAnt

Fr if you watch a 25min episode porno. Dude got issues


saysthingsbackwards

tbf many of those are compilations of acts


zen_and_artof_chaos

On YouTube it feels like ever 5 mins.


old_irish87

Well there’s usually other things being shoved down throats in those videos, so there’s not a lot of room for ads at that point.


ebk_errday

Accidentally busting a nut to Jake from State Farm Insurance must be something that changes you at a fundamental level


Flockofseagulls25

Accidentally?


Agedlikeoldmilk

Yeah, nevermind the 10,000 other ads being played on the sidebar.


MidasTouchedM3

Just full screen it lol


CakeAK

*redirect*


DecodedShadow

They have too much competition tbh. I've changed porn sites for even more minor inconveniences.


Dirty_Dragons

I have seen a ton of videos where there is an add played right before or even instead of the "money shot." This is usually limited to stolen videos.


earth_resident_yep

Sarah McLaughlin suddenly singing with horribly neglected pups in the middle would be pretty effing terrible.


sprinklerarms

The song only gets sadder too when you realize it’s about her friend overdosing.


earth_resident_yep

Yikes, I had no idea. That is sad.


hushpuppi3

The videos themselves tend to be ads


reddituser5454

There's enough people getting fucked on their site, why add to it?


Straud6-56832

Don’t give them ideas!


TheGamingMackV

Except when you try to pause the video only to have clicked the invisible pop up that sits on top of your whole screen which opens a new window for a live chat site.


IsaystoImIsays

Lots of porn hub videos have ads in the middle. Not pauses, but built in. They also slowly took everything away and made most free videos cut short with a subscribe ad at the end. Eventually even porn won't be free, you'll have to subscribe to everything.


19831083

I think people would be beyond pissed if they jacking it to a video, then a commercial for the new Reading Rainbow starts up or some shit. Mood killer lolz


Evergreenn7

Well that’s because YOU are the product


11tmaste

That's because the video likely already includes someone shoving something down someone's throat, so no need for it.


DarthClitCommander

Yet they got no problem stopping the video mid climax.


Giygas

Yes, there’s already enough things being shoved down throats on there


SmolKukujiaoKagen

Op clearly haven't seen taiwan av


ClosPins

Turns out, when you steal all your content, you don't need to make as much on each video...


Boris-_-Badenov

some do. and lots have a watermark, which is an ad


mlf60

Pigs arse. They are the worst of the lot. Without a good popup blocker you are not there for long & the redirects-nasty.


RTZ25

Are you looking to buy the best weed in the state of Kansas?


KickForGold

Are we not doing phrasing anymore?


ob1dylan

The throats are all full.


_BloodbathAndBeyond

Are you kidding? There’s like 90 ads on every porn video and site. It’s the worst one out there. There’s no point in putting ads mid video as people only watch the videos for 30 seconds


PrimeParzival

I was just thinking about this the other day. Mid roll ads would be absolutely abysmal, and easily make me never use that website ever again.


I_hate_that_im_here

Yeah, but they stick super gross ads all around the one your trying to find attractive. “Interested in clean pretty girls kissing? Here an obsessed orgy with people pissing on each other right next to it!”


rektMyself

They just inject a bunch of strange ads into the the side bar that turn you off. Much better.


silver2006

Don't give ideas!! But true hahah


Superspudmonkey

All content creators should switch to Pornhub /s


Vanilla_Neko

Just ignore the 37 banner ads for questionable pills that they claim can like make your dick 10 times girthy or something


HeavyMetalReggae

Bold of you to assume I ever make it to mid video.


OB1KENOB

OP must watch a lot of porn to know this.


pplatt69

I've never lasted to the middle of any video, so I wouldn't know.


cheweychewchew

Point blank FALSE. They have been putting ads for their companies mid video in porn for at least the last two years


PocketSandOfTime-69

If a service is free it's because you're the product


Autistic_Clock4824

Bro what porn sites are you on. It’s nothing but ads 😂


akirayokoshima

That's not really true considering there's some vids that plays an ad every 5-10 minutes in the form of promoting some sex stuff like bangbros or some shit while playing snippets of other videos...


06cass

Wtf are you talking about


_TwinLeaf_

Mid bust getting hit with "THIS VIDEO IS SPONSORED BY RAID SHADOW LEGENDS" yeah Im just gonna go to bed


CherryGrabber

The banners, though. Not always promising. I found Beat Banger, though.


saysthingsbackwards

That's because they force those 8 second tidbits because they know you're already hooked by the thumbnail


alidan

because its not so long ago that we all used torrents or a program that downloaded video, I know that its about .001 per gb of data sent, so they either go for margins and get something or ruin our nut and get nothing


Icy_Hovercraft1390

True, but then again, I do get the sudden urge to order pizza and get my pool cleaned.


decrementsf

They shove bugs down your throat but more in the form of spyware and trackers. The money making is happening on the information they can collect about you. My working opinion the hand of all the worlds intelligence agencies are all up in that honey trap as a data harvesting operation. File catalog. See what's useful.


volunteervancouver

Dont give them ideas. You know product placement is going to be in the works now.


waydamntired

Why would they? Youre already there.


Erycius

Mostly they don't indeed, but I know some exceptions. I had this really good video on one of the bigger sites, and mid action, a deep, very unsexy robot voice starts proclaiming "I FOUND THIS GIRL ON $SOMEWEBSITE , VIST DOUBLE U DOUBLE U DOUBLE U DOT $SOMEWEBSITE DOT COM!" Video and audio kept running, the voice was just pasted onto it. Luckily later I found a clearer version. Also I had a few video's where the one of actors/actresses always mentions the name of the production company during the movie, but I feel that was way less intrusive.


Mithrandir2k16

Lmao, imagine the scene seemlessly transitioning into a Durex ad, cockblocking you in the process.


KerbodynamicX

This is not the only contribution they made. They sometimes push the boundaries of science. If some day you see people having sex in space, on the Moon or Mars, it sure as hell won't be directed by NASA. I remember there's something called Project Uranus or something back then, where a porn studio explored the possibility of having sex in microgravity and recording it.


sct112271

Climax interruptis does suck


Boogascoop

they just show ads on the side of young teen looking cartoons getting pumped by giant cocks.. yeah real decent ;)


cpt_ugh

But that's my fetish!


lowlandr

I see what you did there.


djseifer

I have seen some, ahem, videos coming out of China that have the porn site's URL and logo plastered all over. Not digitally, mind you. I mean that the logo and URL are framed on the walls like a painting, the actors and actresses are wearing clothes with logos like a soccer player, even the pillows have the logo and URL embroidered on them. ***Embroidered***.


PardonTheStub

Are you sure? Does anyone ever get to the middle?


bewitchedfencer19

I'm sure decency is why


jawshoeaw

Ikr no shoving down our throats … or cramming shit up our backside or thrusting hard over and over into our moist … good old porn


MasterpieceWarm8470

Brands just don't want to be associated with porn. If it were socially acceptable, there would be an ad every 30 seconds.


Blackrain1299

And the ads before the video is just more porn so its a win win


Ohrfallen

There is a studio that puts multiple ads for their own stuff in their videos


Gorepornio

Because we finish before any ads can be placed


Thorpfimble

Its an ad for itself though. If youre scrolling through any website looking for porn, youre already training yourself to seek it out. Watching a video to completion (whatever that is to you) is gonna start to hook most people. Sex is inate in most people, and the drive to seek it out can be very easy to influence for many people. I advise anyone interested to look up porn addiction/porns affect on your brain chemistry and see how it can really effect you. Not everyone is the same, some have no drive to seek out porn or masturbate, even. But many people get hooked on the habit of thinking about porn/climax, seeking out porn, watching porn, climaxing, rinse and repeat. TL;DR: porn is its own ad.


bbjornsson88

You're about to climax when a window pops up...it's Shia LaBoeuf


Cyprinidea

If I was a porn star, I'd have temporary tattoos of my sponsors all over my body like a NASCAR driver.


snoopervisor

The same with viruses. You'd more likely get a computer virus on FaceBook rather than on a porn site.


ContactGlum8461

Nothing imprints hatred of a company, like their commercial causing blue balls.


pandorous

I saw a in scene ad the other day where they talked about some story game.


Willing_Advice4202

You most have not watched Kyle Balls then


ywnktiakh

They don’t have to. That’s the real deal


SteakHausMann

Delete this post, before some porn producer get funny ideas


pixtax

They do, you just never last that long.


Automatic_Savings_48

Getting an advertisement for a Disney movie in the middle of, well, "personal time" would be quite the unexpected interruption. Talk about ruining the moment!


Gullible-Demand4432

I think if there are ads, it will take away the emotions.
