It's not video ads we're protesting here - by all means, go video crazy until traffic resumes. It's the way these video ads disrupt/obstruct site content, often can't be closed, glitch up and freeze that we have comments about.
There is a way to do video ads. This is not the way. If you were able to replicate (ask anyclip to give you a demo) what we're experiencing, I'm optimistic you'd get frustrated and come to agree.
I'm able to close every AnyClip ad. I don't know why a demo from the company would include bugs? I've spent hours on multiple devices, as has our tech team, trying to get one of these things to glitch up.
