So that\u2019s the type of advertisement that Google Chrome will now be blocked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A research was conducted that 45,000 worldwide consumers participated in. According to that research, the following three ad experiences were considered disruptive.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Pre-roll ads<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 Pre-roll ads are long ads (more than 31 seconds long) that appear before a video and that the users cannot skip.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Mid-roll ads <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 Mid-roll ads are the ones that appear in the middle of video content. There is no qualifying time duration for mid-roll ads.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Text or image ads<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 This type encompasses all ads that appear on the top of a playing video and cover more than 20 percent of the playing video.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note:\u00a0 The ads were considered disruptive on videos that are less than 8 minutes long. Therefore, videos that are longer than 8 minutes can get away with any type of ads.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2><b>Will this also apply to YouTube ads?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, Google has confirmed that YouTube will also have to comply with these standards.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google announced: <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt\u2019s important to note that YouTube.com, like other websites with video content, will be reviewed for compliance with the Standards. Similar to the previous Better Ads Standards, we\u2019ll update our product plans across our ad platforms, including YouTube, as a result of this standard, and leverage the research as a tool to help guide product development in the future.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2><b>When is this change rolling out?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Chrome will expand its ad-blocking capabilities from August 5, 2020.
