> YouTube who, upon being given the option to have an ad-free experience by paying for YouTube premium, choose to do so.
That’s not interesting because it’s a false dichotomy.
If someone watches youtube and premium costs 5% of their monthly income, it will not be a shocker when they choose to block instead.
Similarly, people who view it as a shakedown for payment with the alternative being visual and audio harassment are not going to bend the knee easily.
I lost all respect for youtube when I saw that my dad is subject to a minimum of 60 seconds of political attack ads every 5-10 minutes that can’t be skipped. Literal political propaganda 10 times an hour. Fuck them.
