      WAIT A SEC there is AT&T preroll in front of this... Is Twitter arbitrarily promoting videos into the timeline to pump up preroll inventory?

        So is Circuit Breaker promoting AT&T and this is brand content without proper FTC-mandated notice? Or...

          Is Twitter attaching brand promotion tags to Tweets that the brand didn't promote directly, in order to attach that brand's preroll?

            Hey ATTcares did you purposefully promote a Vox media brand video to put your preroll on it? Or voxmediainc is this your deal with AT&T?

              Twitter's roll out of preroll is like a masterclass in how to make the most confusing possible user experience decisions.

                Also, if you click out of a tab where Twitter video was playing, then you click back into it after video was finished it replays the video.

                  So prepare for some very suspicious video play numbers from Twitter!

                    I like that someone at Twitter said 'let's make the confusing, obtuse system of programmatic preroll advertising even less transparent!'

                      So who knows if it is up to date, but as far as I can tell from dev docs, it isn't possible to target preroll to a particular account

                        So AT&T's buy of preroll has them sponsoring an unknown set of tweets? Did they know? How does Twitter assure alignment & brand safety?

                          If so, bigger question: isn't it ethically questionable for a purchase of preroll to *directly create* more inventory where none existed?

                            Or is Twitter's position that preroll inventory is equal to their DAUs?

                              Preroll for an insurance company (I think) autoplayed on this video. It's Bloomberg really ok with being literally promoted by someone else?

                                Cheerios pre roll on Cheerios branded content, not made by, but promoted by Cheerios. Coincidence or on purpose?

                                  Huh, NFL themed soup ad before an NFL video.

      Also, FFS, no one should ever use the words 'beautiful' and 'dongle' in the same sentence. Hell even in the same graf.

        Also Apple should go to hell for making the phrase "double-dongle" a thing.
