TV radio and internet advertising......

Is it just me or were we able to tolerate a small amount of advertising in the past but now the quantity is unacceptible .....I personaly turn the tv and radio down when ads come on and use ad blockers on the internet......I used to wonder why if I searched for a type of car on the internet adverts on youtube etc were targeted to me....sick of it all thank god for the BBC. ......

In my case, unless its changed due to me using the word blind and it turning up in web sites, I constantly got Venetian blind roller blind etc, adverts. So much for machine intelligence. Brian

I do not see ads on the internet. Adblock rules. Fuck the advertisers.

The bbc STEAL money from people. You pay the BBC to watch Sky. Tell me why you incorrectly believe this is ok?

lus I was paying £60pm to Sky at home and yet the BBC was only £10pm.
But you could have cancelled the Sky, you can't cancel BBC.

A BP's SICK PAY.

On your laptop/phone/tablet. But then your wife was using it.
Anyway, this is not about your particular situation, but about everyone paying the BBC, even those who only watch Sky channels. It's downright theft. Sky don't get paid when you watch BBC1. Tesco don't get paid when you buy things in Asda.

I know I'm going to regret this, but why pay for TV services you couldn't use, then?
