If you answer wrong, what does it do? Refuse to show you any more of the program you are paying them to provide?

Oh wait, I know. It shows another ad, right? That's gotta be it. We'll keep showing you ads until you fucking pay attention!

Is this real? I'm pretty sure this is ilegal in my country

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

What country and what law?

Quick edit: you know, if Hulu doesn't include anywhere that they do this, it could be seen as additional consideration (in the legal contractual term of the word - basically, what each party provides for the other) in order for Hulu to provide its service that wasn't disclosed.

Of course, that just means we'll get yet another "We updated our terms and while we're at it we're increasing our rates $3/month. Fuck You." email and that's that.

People say stuff like that and I'm like, what's the actual law? "It feels bad so it's probably illegal."

This particular brand of bullshit is so new I doubt there's any legislation out there. Maybe an existing consumer protection law could be bent to fit?

you must live in one of those real countries I've only read about.

I bet, like, they don't even have freedom or whatever.

Fucking losers amirite?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I heard their women don't work after giving birth. Sometimes up to a year!

How disgusting is that?! Think of all that lost productivity, lost profit to day care, no lunches at local fast slop, no wear and tear pm the vehicles. Like really hurting the system but not participating. Very problematic behaviour.

Thank god, not in my America!

Is this fucking real? Get fucked, mainstream media, if this is the case. Plenty of books and old games to keep me occupied until Alzheimers hits, and then occupied again afterwards

[–] [email protected] 97 points 4 days ago (3 children)

This isn't mainstream media.
This is capitalism.

This is a company making a product, selling it for a given price, then making additional money from embedded ads.
Whether that ad revenue is additional profit, or to offset the actual cost of the item - because the sold it at a loss to beat their competitors - doesn't really matter.
This is the consumer paying for something, and not getting a full and complete product

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Mainstream media and capitalism are part of the same bullshit
