Am I stealing if I change the channel during commercials?

  • No, but fast forwarding through commercials on a recorded program is iffy. Essentially, no one is watching ads at that point, and you are skipping them. Not illegal and not stealing, but I could see DVR recordings having mandatory ads put into them at some point.

  • No, because the channel gets paid for airing the commercial, not based on how many people view it at the time.

  • I understand your point but that is poor logic. The commercial still runs if you change the channel. The Ad doesn't run if you use AdBlocker.
