- see cool video on front page
- click
- “Haha, fuck you, you’ve just clicked on the invisible button that takes up half the thumbnail like a fucking moron!”
- redirected to the sponsorship info page
- go back
- video gone
why are you completely incapable of making a functional website you wet dildo
But… you clicked the sponsor link, thereby increasing their profits, right!? Sounds to me like the system is working as intended then:-P.
“Broken as designed.”
it’s an informational page about sponsors, not the actual sponsored link
they can’t even make a dark pattern right
It’s not a link to a sponsor. It’s a YouTube info page about what it means for a video to have the “Contains sponsorship” tag.
That… sounds far dumber than I gave even them credit for! :-|
