you laughing. but they can always make it paid and you wont be able to do anything about it.
You say that like it would affect me at all
No, I steal the content and have the ads auto-stripped by not being a mong and having a few plugins installed.
I just quit watching youtube. No participation is even better than trying to get around it.
As in make YouTube itself a completely paid platform? Tbh, I expect that is coming before too long.
Honestly if it goes completely paid ill just stop using it. Its not going to make me become a customer and the cool thing is some other platform, option or activity will fill its void.
Youtube will just become another streaming service that I dont pay for
Maybe YOU won't be able to do anything about it
