Brief Explanation

Egyptians hate nothing more than that little annoying buffering icon that interrupts their Internet quality time. That's why Linkdsl took it upon them to rid Egyptians once and for all from that buffering icon. Based on the top 10 keyword Egyptians search for on YouTube, we’ve customized our pre roll ads to fit their chosen content, to let all Egyptians know that the end of “that thing”/ buffering icon is near. And because “Comedy is all about timing”, the script was written in a way that describes the experience of a non- link user while watching a funny video, emphasizing that dramatic moment when the buffering icon freezes the video and ruin the whole thing for the viewer.
