    It clearly says it’s on the paid tier only?

    Not that I care much one way or the other. I’m still frustrated with HBO Max selling me “ad free” and then putting a skippable ad at the start of every video. It’s not ad free if there’s a “skippable” ad! I paid extra specifically so I wouldn’t have to see that.

      I use the Brave browser, so the ads don’t work thankfully, but yes, pirate all the things regardless.

        Yeah ad blockers are great for that. I know from experience Peacock with ads will all be blocked if you have an ad blocker. But that only works on my computer not my Roku.

        Because the app seems to think “ad free” can include ads as long as they carry a “skip” button. Which are still ads.
