YouTube first spoke about pause ads last year when it started trialing them in select regions. At the time, the company said that when you pause a video, it will shrink, and an ad will appear next to it.
“In Q1, we saw strong traction from the introduction of a pause ads pilot on connected TVs, a new non-interruptive ad format that appears when users pause their organic content,” Schindler noted. He went on to share that YouTube’s pause ads are “driving strong brand lift results” and “are commanding premium pricing from advertisers.”
Schindler didn’t share any timelines for when pause ads will start appearing on YouTube, but we know they’ll first roll out on smart TVs. The nature of these ads, including their duration, skippability, and more is still unclear. We also don’t know if Google plans to introduce these ads on YouTube’s mobile apps.
Are you a lawyer? Honestly curious.
It sounds like you’re stating that the Creative Commons license is invalid to use whenever it’s used online. I’m pretty sure the people who made the license wouldn’t agree with that.
to use whenever it’s used online.
Didn’t say that at all. I’m saying that you posting your post to lemmy.world doesn’t bind them to any license. And neither does it bind anyone else to it.
If it’s your words on your own platform then no problem, you can license it however you see fit. But your post was posted to someone else’s server and was federated to my instance. I didn’t agree to any license and neither did the lemmy instance you posted to (or anyone else in the federation), I wouldn’t have accepted any terms of a license, and will continue not to accept any that limits my ability to distribute content unrestricted (eg. a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, copy, distribute, publicly display, and modify your User Content) specifically because all of that is required in order to distribute content over the fediverse. Regardless of if my lemmy instance makes money or not.
Nobody needs to be a lawyer to understand this. Being bound to licenses requires consent in order to be bound. You published your data to my server knowingly where I do not offer such consent to any user submitted license. This would be akin to you handing me a gift and only after I’ve used it state that I need to accept terms and conditions. That’s not how it works at all.
Lets look at this the other way… If I posted this response to my lemmy instance and grant rights only to lemmy.saik0.com with no rights for distribution, no rights to other instances, and all other rights fully reserved. I cannot now go after every instance in the federation for distributing my content to your screen, I willingly gave the content over and lemmy.saik0.com or lemmy.world didn’t necessarily agree to that license. Or another example… Where I want to post restrictive license that grants me rights to someone else’s instance even though I have no ownership stake in their instance for posting on their platform. You cannot simply bind someone to a license of ANY TERMS without explicit acceptance. In many cases it’s “by continuing to use this product” on a modal pop-up for example. requiring an active closing of the modal to continue operating the site. You’re missing that completely… consent… and every server in between me and you would also need to agree to it even if I were to agree to your license terms.
Ultimately I own my server… and you’re submission of content pushes data to my server without my consent to your terms. You cannot bind me to them.

Honestly, I’m too exhausted to rebut your various points that I disagree with. Been spending too much time, much more than should be spent, in debating this issue with people, for what we’re talking about, a single link.
I’ll advocate for being the owner of my own content, and being able to license it the way I see fit, until an actual lawyer with some standing states otherwise.
I do thank you for your input though.
I just find it hilarious that you post shit like this… https://lemmy.world/comment/9578409
And think that your posts should not be usable for some purpose reason when O’Reilly definitely WOULD have a case over their trademark. And you’re distributing that content under your own license. Especially since that image is tagged with a different user in the bottom right.
I don’t care for the argument. I’m just outlining why people are downvoting you. You’re likely wrong, which you’ve already admitted in your comment history that you have no idea. And that you are a hypocrite on the matter anyway.
But right… Good luck.
