internet commercials

Is anyone else sick of having to watch a commercial on the internet before the real video you want to watch?

Yes, but if it's the price to pay for not having to pay extra for the internet, then I'd rather go with the commercials...

Yeah, I just remind myself that the commercials are the price, they seem more honest to me than all the data gathering that gets done on us and then sold.

Doesn't work 100% of the time, but it does a decent job.

At the theaters, too. I heard on the radio there's a theater chain (didn't catch the name) that doesn't do commercials or advertisements except for the movie pre-views.

Animeclap Hooray for that chain! There's really no need for ads in the movie theater.

Are there ad blockers for iPads?

I get frustrated when I try to close an ad and it sweeps me off to some other website. Or when an ad takes over my device and routes me to the App Store.

I agree with you, Becky, it seems to be getting worse, or at least, it's annoying me more.
