I pay 6$ using a student discount for YouTube premium because I like watching YouTube on my android TV and I can't use ad blocker there. In fact I've been using it for so long that it actually shocks me when I see someone open YouTube and an ad pops up it feels weird

Same but I haven't been giving Google money so they can further ruin the internet.
