Google is feeling pretty pumped about a new way of showing you ads on YouTube (www.androidauthority.com)

Thank you. I read that part, but it doesn't explain what else happens. It doesn't really give much details. So no ads all throughout the video until it is paused? Does that add disappear when I resume the video?.... Etc. Like more context would be helpful. Unless that's the only thing they know?

I will guarantee you, these will be additional ads, not replacing existing ones.

Oh I'm pretty sure it's going to be something shitty.

Of course it disappears when you start playing the video again. Some video sites already have had ads like this for a few years.
