Free YouTube is so obnoxious with the ads

Old youvtube was list that. Most low tier streaming sites are like that.
i've avoided all instructionals since the dislike button got removed. before, if someone was giving dumb or dangerous "advice," the downvotes would be a crowdsourced retard check. now, anyone can run their mouth about shyt they have no idea about, turn the comments off, and an uninitiated viewer would have no way of knowing better.

They can only do this because they basically have a monopoly. These companies have been allowed to get too big to the point where they're doing shyt like this. I recommend that everyone pays close attention to what is currently happening to google in court.

Does Google just buy competitors to keep them out of the market? The government thinks so.

Bruh…I’m so sick ads and ppl trying to sell shyt to me 24/7. nikka I’m typing this right now with a ad playing in the right bottom corner. I can’t even go to the fukking beach without some fukking planes going in succession showing off ads.
YouTube should've never been allowed to be bought by Google in the first place. Many of these tools of the information age should be in the hands of government and be protected without data being collected. That should be a basic right in any civilized society. Putting ads on these anywhere and collecting data from them is a type of creepy that Stalin and Hitler would never have even dreamed of. And people have just silently accepted it and pretend that it's normal. It's not.They can only do this because they basically have a monopoly. These companies have been allowed to get too big to the point where they're doing shyt like this. I recommend that everyone pays close attention to what is currently happening to google in court.

I was thinking about doing this as I also watch hella YouTube. I always skip the ad for it tho. I don't want it to become one of those charges I end up forgetting aboutI've been using premium for a few years now and it's a much better experience. Yeah I could do the whole different browser and ad block or whatever but it's inconvenient when trying to watch YouTube on my TV and on my PS4 or PS5. Plus I set my VPN to a foreign country so I'm only paying like $5 a month.
I watch a lot of youtube when I'm working at night so it's worth it.
