Yeah i don't get why its being called "hidden". I've tested on 3 different browsers, no adblock, and its right fucking there. Hard to miss.

If it was actually hidden, i'd have issue. In this case? Its a bit of aggressive advertising on their partner sites. It happens, welcome to basic internet marketing.

Just to be clear to those who think : "it's clever and it's not hidden it's in plain view !!"

The contract they have with Dailymotion and the Ads is for a Video Ad which means Video AND Sound. The stream is default set to "mute". So only that in itself is fraudy behaviour.

Also Ads are not always displayed randomly, they can be relievant to the viewers population you are aiming at. You will not display an Ad for Retirement Foundraising to a gamers community ... So by doing what they do, they make irrelevent 80% of the Ads they display which again is in contradiction to what a streaming contract with Dailymotion/Twitch/Own3d/etc... is supposed to be.

Apart from Dailymotion I don't really see who would have an issue with the matter, since they don't have any sponsors. And you don't really spoil you audience by inflating numbers on a stream with free content.
It could call for a litigation with Dailymotion since they normally pay content creaters based on unique viewers (or so I imagine) but it's not really a matter of importance for stream viewers.

Things like this have been done in e-advertisement a long time. There are people working full time on getting random users to load pages with adds. Exploiting googles pagerank etc. Business is business there are no ethics when it comes to advertisement. I mean watch any TV channel and there will be subliminal or hypnotic tricks used all over. If you cannot see it you're getting owned ^^

Yeah so, why the hell would it be worth a TL topic? It's a business matter between EC and Dailymotion.

Because we are the eSport community, and as one, if we want to see eSports grow in a good way, we have to share and enlight good and bad behaviours.
We are the ones who make a team/player/caster hyped.

It's not much of a war. It's about the legit teams trying their hard to make eSport bigger in France, to have the media and all have a credible look on it. And then you have shady guys spitting dust on that work.

Meh, not worthy of a post tbh. don't see why would anyone care, it's not like they took the viewers' money or some shit. Except if you love drama. Oh wait..

Well aAa has set themselves up as the whistle-blowers of french esports and until they change their legal status, they are unlikely to do anything else. It's not really a war, it's more aAa trying to gain views by doing investigation.

My big question is: What are streaming sites like Twitch going to do to stop this from happening? They can't stop embedding and they can't make everyone who wants to watch log in. Maybe something like Pandora that asks if the person is still there? I feel like this could actually be a problem in the future of streaming if it isn't sorted out.

sensationalist OP.

- Streams are clearly visible.
- One of the websites even has a description right next to stream.
- Stream controls are easily accessible.


The biggest issue is that people who go to those sites aren't looking at the stream and thus not the ads. Also, sponsors should have the ability to choose where their ads get placed. They don't want their products associated with certain sites for a reason.

Seriously, how is this team even still going? Surely people have lost all confidence in them by now.
