I could not possibly care less about this as long as there's no audio. I'm fine with a restaurant making a bit of extra money this way

That's nice, I care though and would smash it.

It only starts this way. Then, they add audio and then, you can only pee after watching the ad.

Oh my god, I fear you are on to something here. It's only a matter of time before some venue decides to make an ad-supported restroom that forces you to watch a 30-second video ad before you can enter the stall.

Bonus dystopia points if it has a camera for view tracking that pauses the ad if you close your eyes or look away.

That's different and would change my opinions. But once I get my drangus aimed, I'm looking straight ahead at a urinal anyway so a silent ad below my sight is whatever to me
