Comment on YouTube Tests Showing Ads When You Pause a Video, Calls it ''Pause Ads''

  What if I paused a video to be able to read something from the paused frame and it’s all covered by an ad?

    There is an image in this thread with a smaller screen and a ad onb the side.

    But overlaid ads are bad. Daily motion?

      I just saw the image and it makes the actual paused video smaller (thus making it harder to read small text and see details in the paused frame). Also, ads are immersion breaking.

        harder to read small text

        Yeah. Could be a problem.

        Well, so is pausing a video
