Youtube and other sites sometimes have adverts before their videos start loading. After a few secs you get a "Skip Ad" button. Does this button do anything other than just skip the ad? I can't imagine many people sit thru an ad if there's the option to skip it, so it seems a bit of a farce even trying to advertise really.

Clicking the button gives the site access you your browser cookies. From this it ascertains which pron sites you've visited and posts them on your facebook page.

If you don't click the button you have to view the ad, but the same thing happens, except in this case the list of pron is posted on your linkedin page
