NFT: BBI Video Ads

anyone else getting them? Good lord they are brutal. I get it, times are tough but they should atleast be on auto-mute with a user option to turn sound on which used to be an ad-server regulation.

not seen any auto-play (sound) ads on the site.

Can you tell me which spot they are appearing?
its the only website that I have this issue on  
UConn4523 : 7/10/2020 11:52 am : link
and I don't want to block revenue generating ads. Just making it known to the site operators that these ads are extremely annoying - sometimes 3 load at one, blaring out sound all at the same time.

Silent ads I don't care about, but auto-enabled sound ads should be blocked from the ad server, IMO.

With all due respect, the ad situation on BBI is far superior than most of the newspaper sites.

If you block BBI ads, BBI will go out of business.

That is correct. If you've noticed all around social media, you'll be seeing more ads. Even on platforms like YouTube, Hulu, etc. Ad revenue rates collapsed.
