SomeGuy1234 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Why does uTorrent allow auto play videos ads with sound??? I got one a while ago and dismissed it, but I got another one tonight. This is from the ad in the bottom left of the window. uTorrent started out as a small awesome torrent client without too many features piled on, and I really liked it a few years ago. Since then, it's been adding features and ads, neither of which I want. I was fine with that though, they just want to get some money for their work. But an auto play video ad with sound? That's completely unacceptable. Guess I've gotta find a torrent client that doesn't break such a simple rule about how to avoid annoying users for no reason.

N4TE_B Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Thanks for the report. I've escalated this to the Ad team. No audio should play without some user-initiated action like a mouse-over or click. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really sure if that's the case or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
