Have you used one of those gas pumps with a screen recently? That's definitely where it's going.
No, those aren't a thing where I live thankfully, although that would probably cause me to switch petrol stations if they started doing this (or finally buy an electric car so I can have the ads on a giant screen while I'm driving /s).
The other day I had to wait for the ad video to stop playing before I could press "Yes" to have it print a receipt. I won't be going back to that location.
gas station near me had those about 5 years or so ago. I'm not sure if they still have them or not, but volume pumped up to a crazy level too.
Yes, and through terrible, tiny speakers.
