I have had premium family since it was red or something. It is my last streaming sub if you don’t count nebula which I never use. I still need to use smarttube and Firefox+ublock and various extensions as modern YouTube is a disaster.

I want to send google a message that here is someone prepared to pay money for a decent experience but they don’t give a shit. Its going to be very tough to win me back as a customer when I go which won’t be much longer.

The reason I’ll never pay Google a subscription fee is because they still spy on you and make money off your data even if you pay them.

The deal is supposed to be either:

  • I get your service for free, you spy on me and sell ads to cover the cost of the service

OR

  • I pay for your service, you will NOT show me ads or sell my data

Any service that doesn’t fall into one of those two categories can GTFO.
