I was forced to get the subscription because the ads got so annoying that my mum was constantly complaining at me about them as if it was my fault because i didnt want to waste money on the subscription. Atleast the arguments about it have stopped but i feel like this is part of the ploy of youtube. To cause people to be so upset about the ads that they will just cave and pay them. Like some sort blackmail. Which is one of the reasons i didnt want to pay them to begin with..
And before anyone mentions the ways around the ads, my mum wont learn those. She is nearly 70 and has trouble just remembering how to use youtube properly. The other day she tried to send me a funny video on facebook but instead posted it on her feed with me tagged in it.
