    The investors. Ads are not generating enough revenues, and there are people who will pay to not see them.

        I don't have ads in my youtube-video's. Simply update your hosts-file :)

        You can stop the interstitials with a hosts entry? What's the entry look like?

          Dunno which entry; it must be one from the mvps[^] file as far as I can tell. It blocks some ad-servers (and malware-servers) at the IP level, making them inaccesible regardless of the application requesting it.

                I care about neither answer nor the question. Though I have heard that the silence will fall when the question is answered. (Or is that asked? I don't know. Whatever.)

                  Nice. I block other stuff "for my own good" from mine and use adblock+ + ghostery for the rest. Do you have a loopback ad blocking hosts file reference you like? I imagine there are probably a bunch of them kicking around on ye olde innert00bz

                    A few others that might be interesting;

                    • http://www.hosts-file.net/?s=Download[^]
                    • http://www.bluetack.co.uk/premium/downloads.html[^]
                    • http://www.daemonbernstein.com/hosts.html[^]
                    • https://trjlive.com/2014/04/trjlives-ultimate-ad-block-hosts-file/[^]
                    • http://www.hostsfile.org/hosts.html[^]

                    If you download them all you'll get some double entries. There are utilities available for merging and keeping them up to date.

                      Awesome! Thanks for the list. Eh. If I can't manage to dedupe some hosts files then I need to hang it up as a programmer. I'll just bang that out in emacs.
