and they are often good videos (if you like watching extreme sports related things), given the partial second video this seems likely for the account who made the screenshot

but given that half a video is not a full video this still means we are at one single full video

and an AD which is deceptively pretending to be a video

I still think regulators should ban deceptive ads and require ads to to clearly different from the main content _on the first take/glance_. They way YT, Google and co handle ads is IMHO deceptive to a point its reasonable to say they try to deceive the user into clicking on the ad when they wouldn't have done so if they new it was an ad.

And "systematically deceiving a user/customer to their detriment (wasting time) and your profit" isn't just shitty but on a gray line to outright fraud.

I dont particularly enjoy red bulls drinks, but their ads are often cool enough to be considered content.

It's probably the only company with ads that are more enjoyable than their product.

I used to think they were a foundation dedicated to funding extreme sports who also happened to sell an energy drink as well.

Their business is basically selling poison but creating such absurd quantities of great free entertainment that everyone forgives them.

		I mean, in terms of getting your caffeine, Redbull is basically the least poison in the game. It's not even a lot of caffeine and doesn't contain a lot of the other shit that stuff like Monsters contain. Like really, checkout the redbull ingredient list sometime. There's not much to it. Not saying it's healthy at all. Nobody should really be drinking energy drinks, but Redbull is probably the least awful of the bunch.
