Facebook says people OK with video ads that interrupt content, if they're short

I can say that I have never watched a video past where an ad tries to load. I never even see the ad; I exit out before the ad loads.

I view it as a bait-and-switch, and I refuse to support such (IMO, morally repugnant) tactics.

I wish that we as consumers had a better, more effective way to punish such adversarial tactics.

In other news, Facebook says that people are also fine with them harvesting their web history and cookies from their browser for activity completely unrelated to Facebook.

Facebook also says that you said it was OK to take your lunch out of the lunchroom fridge and that apple from your desk.

“OK with” seems to really mean “don't navigate away from at a high rate”.

Hahaha, I wonder who’s brnefit from his being the case?
