Youtube has always taken action against inappropriate and annoying promotional advertisements. The site has recently removed a marketing campaign of Hollywood’s upcoming film ‘The Nun’ as it seems disturbing and scary to the viewers.
The six seconds ad, which comes in between Youtube videos, shows the volume increasing, decreasing and eventually it reaches mute when the frightening character of Nun appears with a screaming voice in the background. The ad is said to be upsetting many viewers.
As the ad has violated the site’s policies, Youtube team has acknowledged viewers concerns. “Appreciate you bringing this to our attention! This ad violates our shocking content policy and it's no longer running as an ad,” they said in a statement.
