The difference is when you have 40+ tabs open and a video ad on one (or more) of them start to play audio.

[up] He's saying it's a huge pain when you open lots of pages in tabs, and one or more of them starts playing the video ad with sound on its own...that's happened to me before multiple times and it's very annoying.

[down] Oh, okay, I misread your comment.

That's what I mean, though, I don't see much of a difference between that and audio ads (which do the same thing). Neither should really be allowed, but only audio ads aren't allowed.

The agreement we have with our ad provider is that we don't get ads that play audio without you explicitly clicking on them. Ads that do something unwanted on mouseover are something of a grey area.

I have noticed on those bottom of the page video ads it is kinda of hard to get info on the ad for some browsers. Like IE for example.

I don't recall if there was an announcement, are the Taboola ads gone? I just realized I'm not seeing them, while refreshing pages trying to find a problem ad.

Only thing that I'm aware of changing on my end is the new version of Firefox, and I'm seeing our normal ads just fine.
