People watching mobile phone videos in public

I just find it totally unacceptable, I can be sitting somewhere quietly and all of a sudden, someone is watching a video on their phone with the sound on very loud. They seem totally oblivious to their surroundings or just don’t care.

Most of the time it’s just inane influencers selling tat or one video after another with loud background music. I had an incident recently where someone had finished watching the video and left the phone playing away on their table.  
I just find it totally overwhelming and makes it impossible to concentrate on anything. 
I occasionally listen to YouTube, I wear headphones, it’s quite easy.

Is it just me and I’m being overly sensitive?

  • People these days lack respect and spatial awareness. You're not being sensitive at all. I've started keeping two or three pairs of earphones on me and giving them to people telling them "aw no, looks like you forgot your earphones, here, have this pair. I bought them for myself but I think you need them more!" Hasn't failed yet
