The commercial channels are allowed more advert time now, and do not have to
have equal length breaks or equal length parts between ads, targetting them
more toward the good bits in a program.
As for internet, the fight back against ad blockers is in progress. many
sites will now not let you view them unless you turn off your ad blocker.
There are too many ads on web sites, and in my case I want the right to
chuck them out as a perfectly accessible web site can be made totally
unusable to a blind person by inappropriate ad content like animations,
graphis and dynamic content.

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. ......
