Above is one of my 2 year old nephew’s favourite channels. He watches them everyday. For his parents who work from home, it’s the greatest thing. If an ad comes up, he cries and they know something is up.
However, they are clicking the ok button on the TV far too often per video cause of this.
They run that 90+ sponsored content so frequently it’s become crap. I’ve seen Land Rover ads, the one above is a house, and the most annoying is when they run other cartoons like Thomas the Tank Engine or something. If the kid wanted that, no problem. But right now the singing cats are his jam. Cars, property? Someone is paying actual money to get ads in front of 2 year old kids?
Tell me this isn’t a scam.
Tell them to go onto the YouTube kids website or the app and make a kids account. It doesn’t have ads and that show is on there.
You seem to forget that not all advertising is targeted. Some is just general market advertising and will play everywhere.
It’s cheaper because it’s not targeted, but also can be a better option depending on what you’re trying to market and who you’re trying to reach. It also means the ads will play to people who don’t care as a side effect.

Capitalism is all scams now, man. Been that way for a while. Even the top dogs are all committing fraud and are above the law. Its not gonna get better, it will always get worse for profits.
They all finally figured out that government moves slower than they can fuck the consumer
This is the channel setting it that way. I’m not defending YouTube, but the channel knows exactly what they are doing.
To blast ads to the wrong target audience? At some point, the ad owner will see a decline in returns. We had 1 million views and less than 0.1% returns in the form of enquiries/sales. Seems like a totally bad investment.
