(parodical) YouTube popup:

Going to pee during the ad break violates YouTube's Terms of Service

  • It looks like you selfishly left the room while our ads were playing. Don't you know that by watching youtube you entered a CONTRACT?!
  • We killed the competition by operating at a loss for a decade. We paid good money to be the only game in town.
  • Now that there are no other options, we can start to make that money back however we like. So turn your webcam on so that our advertisers know you're paying attention.

(Two buttons, first one suggested)

Forget YouTube.

Sony owns a patent for a system/concept that needs you to audibly name the company/product the advertisement is for to continue at the end of the advertisement.

In the center of the pizza, the toppings appear to make a sad face, as if the person who drew the artwork for the patent felt bad about drawing artwork for such a shitty patent idea.

See, this is the kind of content I love to see deep in comment chains

Edit: though I think you're only one level down from the top - usually I have to go digging farther for gold like this

Verification cans are coming

Well I suppose AI generated speech will come in handy

Yeah for sure, except the one I set up won't seem to pass verification because every answer might happen to sound exactly like "fuck you" (to Sony) 100,000 times in a row.
