All good ideas but I think some psychology might be better. I think
I'll try synthesizing the sound of an iPhone ringing. That should
stop anyone ahead in their tracks as they look down at their iPhone to
see who's calling. Since they've now stopped moving, I can usually
weave (or zip) around them. If that doesn't work, I'll try the
doppler shifted sound of screeching tires.


Electronic is too wimpy. This ought to do:

It might be an interesting experiment. One could use the sounds of
screams, someone shouting "Fire, Fire", various types of police Sirens
- I like the continental "He-Haw" - or even bombs going off, to see
what worked the best.

I'm not sure about the iPhone sound as I see most of the younger
generation walking about with wires coming out of their ears and their
lips moving. They might not be listening for a phone to ring :-)

For a verbal 'clear the road', 'aloha snackbar' would do it.

Youtube has begun to nag more persistently and they make you wait them
out. A really nasty one is an IBM Watson ad that has caused me to
abandon Youtube at times.

I have developed a habit of doing some other chore while watching out of
the corner of an eye, then turning to the screen when the fluff is over.
Often I miss it and then just "spool back" to the beginning. I never
really see the ads consciously so I couldn't even tell you what any one
of them is about or what they wanted to sell.

I have almost stopped looking at youTube entirely except when they have political content I'm trying to make a point of.

The problem with Youtube is that it is a movie and can be made to
prove just about anything that the maker wants to prove.

I would as well but they have a de facto monopoly. If I want to see how
a singletrack looks or maybe watch some white-knuckle kayak ride it
can't be beat.

As an example - This was widely believed

until this

came out.

Although Snopes helped, as usual.
