YouTube has been testing a new way to show you ads that appear when you pause your video, and it feels pretty confident about them.

    If I pause a video, literally the only thing that is absolutely one hundred percent certain is that I’m not looking at the video. What a stupid idea.

      Unless I’m following a tutorial, and pausing to look at the details. On a phone you can pause and pinch-zoom to get a better view.

      Would be super annoying if an ad popped up right then.
