Google raising price of YouTube Premium to $13.99 per month - eviltoast

Oof I think this service is only worth it if you have a family plan and everyone helping. That is how I personally make it reasonable in terms of pricing.

    At this point it’s less about cost than it is about doing something against rampant collection of personal data no one should have any business looking at.

    I don’t see any problem if people see value in that subscription and want to pay it. But the fact that you pay and they still siphon the same metric fuck ton of data to monetize for themselves really shouldn’t be okay.

    Now, if they were transparent about this, asked the user for consent, who then agrees, then it’s obviously fair game. But doing this any other way should never be acceptable.
