I think the internet is turning to shit and that Google/Youtube is greedy like every other conglomerate.
But… they have to get something from people using there services. I personally use YouTube like an iPad kid so I have premium. I like the EUs tech laws but I don’t think they should rule that a computer can’t push ads (assuming the ads are not malicious)
YouTube's ads have been malicious for years. If now they try to push the ads they used to have people wouldn't have a reason to complain. But the way YouTube and Google are maximizing all their cash grabs they need to be put down in any way possible.
