Hmm. Video ads. Clearly there is no other way to make money any more. The 15 seconds slot makes me think these will be coming to Instagram too.

Interested social media browsers, meanwhile, can click on the window to expand the video into a full-screen view with sound.

Presuming adblocker will still take care of this? If so I'll have to install it on my work laptop!
