    At this point, if I see or come across any commercial and I can’t turn them off with ad blockers or any other method … I use the MUTE BUTTON.

    I always used to do that with cable TV in the 90s, now I’m using this more often again.

        I wish someone could come up with a ‘commercial silencer button’ … a mute button that would mute the audio but also dim the video by 50% … then when you unmuted, audio comes back and so does full brightness.

      Yes, and I pull up the TV settings menu to cover most of the screen so my kids can’t watch muted commercials, either.
