Even with premium I got a banner for YouTube premium. Due to my ad blocker the banner is empty, apart from the Premium logo, but I still got a banner.

It was just once. Normally I never see it. So must be a glitch or something. But I hate Google pushing as much ads as possible. Also when Chromecasting at a party, if 5 people have premium and 1 does not, everyone has to watch ads. When opening a YouTube video in WhatsApp, I get ads, while having premium. Whenever there's a doubt, or in a crowd of 100 only 1 doesn't have premium, it's ads ads ads for everyone! It's disgusting. A soothing sleeping video? Suddenly extremely loudly ADS! Thanks Google! Now I can't sleep anymore. I thought I had premium! Fuck you Google!
I sometimes have to refresh a page to get rid of an ad which sometimes happens even with premium. Both with chromium based browser and Firefox.
