What happens if you dont answer “correctly”?
I would expect another ad or the same one again but I don’t know
I feel like the only even remotely acceptable way to do this is to show the ad, prompt for the answer for 10 seconds. They can log the right/wrong answer or if the time expires the lack of one and must move on.
I can imagine metrics knowing if your advertising is actually reaching people is valid. But to make people answer and especially make them watch more if they answer wrong is about as dystopian as it gets.
If (and I say if, I really don’t want to believe it is) that is the case, the only correct response is to uninstall Hulu immediately and put on your pirate hat.
If this was the case, I’d enter the wrong answer every time just to fuck with their metrics
Engaging in it by thinking about it and answering is going to make it stay in your mind longer and would be a success in the eyes of the advertisers.
In that case I’ll enter the left answer every time
It plays again, but louder.
Oh, wow, at least in Black Mirror they only made sure your eyes were open, you didn’t need to pay attention.

Lol wtf

That’s what you get for paying instead of pirating.
Paying for the unique opportunity to see the newest, moistest, and most intrusive ads*.
*Also comes with a limited selection of movies and series.
New season of Black Mirror looks lit af.
This is how I become radicalized.
You’re on lemmy, you’re already radicalised.
I’d love to become rich, so I can keep on pirating as a statement. Or to show a rich guy how much better pirating is as a service.
Maybe then we can get their attention and prove that enshittification is the problem, and not the cost.
And I thought I couldn’t feel better about Jellyfin.
“Please stand and yell “Mcdonalds” to end commercial”
Isn’t this patent infringement? Sony patented that, right? Hulu should be allowed to use that.
I’d yell “Whopper beats a Big Mac!”
what happens when you answer wrong?
Just a liitle electric shock.
It tells you the right answer. It then it froze up and crashed my Fire TV.
to be fair it does not take much for my fire tv stick to freeze up and crash
If it’s like captcha, the same thing as when you answer right… Start all over.
Will be interesting to see where this goes. I know I have said it before and they might not think im serious but so help me satan I will read books. Do they want that!
It’s a free service, right? It’s not a paid service, right?
Nope, you pay either way. I think it’s $10/mo for the ad supported tier, and $20/mo fke the ad free tier.
You pay to see ads.
My limited brain can’t understand the concept of pay+ads
People actually do that?
Funny enough, Hulu has been doing a paid+ads tier from the get-go, long before other services started jumping on this bandwagon.
Never made sense to me why anyone would want it then, and it still doesn’t make sense even now that all the services are offering similar plans. People pining for that cable TV experience maybe?
Just checked; this doesn’t appear on the latest version of Jellyfin with pirated media.
That’s really stupid, but there’s one (unimportant) thing I’m not understanding. When they ask the numbers of rows in the car, are they asking the number of rows of seats?
What’s the purpose of this? You have to supply a correct answer to make the ad go away?
that’s some black mirror stuff
