Sounds like you've already been swayed if you're just handing Google money
"Sounds like you're already fallen into their trap because you're willingly paying money for a service provided by a large company"
I'm not paying google anything. I use DuckDuckGo
to get youtube premium, you have to pay for a subscription, google owns youtube. therefore, you are paying google.
well that's one way of looking at it, i guess
am i taking crazy pills? There's literally no other way to look at it. It's a tautology, if you are paying google for youtube premium, then you're paying google.
I'm wondering how you're paying Google for a thing but also apparently not actually paying them for the thing... Is YouTube premium piracy a thing or something?
