Google To Allow Double Serving Ads.
-
I can’t find it on my Roku or AppleTV or TIZEN or WebOS.

That’s not true

Don't forget light pollution that wrecks peoples and animals biorythms

Ad companies are often payed on "impressions" which bots that click on a link can count as. Or they are payed upfront for a ad campaign in both of those cases the incentive is to make it seem like as many people are clicking the link as possible.
I know how it works but thanks. Impressions are cpm vs cpc like you described. The incentive is to have the cleanest traffic in order to get bigger budgets from agencies. Yes, there are shady networks that will look the other way but the original comment stated everyone in the space is bot friendly.

Well, advertisement is form of expression. I don't accept that kind of expression in general just like some people have food intolerance.
Is it really an ad if it's not actually trying to sell something though?

Is advertising art ?

...because if I'm not interested in something, I might change my mind after I see it a bunch more times on the same fucking page - what a brilliant idea! Hell, put the ad in 50 different spots and make me click no less than 7 times to close each one - who knows, maybe that will encourage me to buy whatever shit you're peddling!

Or some cheap Raspberry Pi box or those sail the high seas streaming sticks or a Nvidia shield, so many better options than giving the Spyware and adware filled TV OS from getting access to your internet

Well, it seems to be official now. Starting April 14, 2025 Google will update its Unfair advantage policy to say it is allowed to show the same ad, from the same company, going to the same page, as long as the ad is in a different ad location. Google was just experimenting with double serving ads earlier and now it is officially going to be allowed.
Sounds like an awesome way to get me to boycott your product for annoying me

Not sure when the last time you tried doing this is, but it's pretty easy these days. KDE connect can pretty much handle most of the HTPC necessities. Alternatively, a debloated Onn box will do the trick quite easily
onn 4k googletv box is amazing. $20 and a launcher swap and it's like ads don't exist any more

Yeah, normal YouTube is totally unwatchable. If you have a Roku device, the Playlet app can let you watch without ads. There are probably methods for other devices too.
Roku is terrible too though. Their data collection is bad and they've started tightening their grip on some things.
