Well, in the case of youtube, your data is being farmed, packaged and sold in the form of ads. Maybe you don't see ads on yt, but your data is being mined and used to show ads on other sites.

So in short you're not only the customer you're the produce. Even better for Google, you're produce that pays to be sold.

It's like taking it up the ass while sucking cock.

lmao free extensions doing everything you are paying for

your buying poison. it would far less destructive to you to spend that money on cigarettes and taco bell.
>>
you should spend that money on Israel instead

>4chan pass
This site is neglected and we aught to have more perks. I say this as someone with a pass.
>YouTube premium
YouTube is a pure slop generator and you're only paying for features that are free with a few extensions or an alternative front-end.

Giving money to google is about equal morally to donating to ISIS

its probably not bad for you. its bad for me because i believe everything on youtube and 4chan, the user generated internet as a whole, should be strictly not monetized.

Not OP, but it helps my parents because they aren't able to keep up with the tech stuff, and setting it up on the tv is also much easier than installing smarttube or whatever.
But if it's just your personal devices, you might as well just use modded YouTube and extensions, and call it a day.

Streaming and watching content on these "approved" platforms is such a dystopia-nightmare these days. I still remember when Netflix was $8 per month for streaming AND getting DVDs in the mail. No ads. That was a good service. Totally worth the price. Now? Forget about it. $9 per month, WITH ADS, and NO DVDs in the mail. Worse still, they're constantly removing shows and movies. Masonic mutt-topia propaganda is off the charts. Streaming peaked in the early 2010s. If you're not pirating, you're just a willing bitch at this point. And paying for Youtube? Are you kidding me? Might as well donate to DARPA every month in addition to taxes. Firefox with Ublock Origin. Buy physical versions of the actually good stuff. Pirate everything else. You're welcome.

I donated to Wikipedia too. Paychads keep piracy subsidised for the poor masses..

Is there any browser extension that get rid of the annoying 20 second loading time and "experiencing interruptions? ;^)" on YouTube?
ublock lite on chrome blocks ads but you still gotta wait a long time until the video loaded
I even went back to firefox with proper ublock origin but it doesn't help either

there are but it's a whack-a-mole game between YT and the various ways of blocking their ad bullshit. Youtube is selling a LOT of "Premium" subs and that's why they have ramped up their harassment of those blocking ads. The main reason npc's buy premium is to get rid of that annoying shit so if you make a free browser extension that does it you are "costing" Youtube money.

The real answer is why are you watching YT videos. Any creator with a lick of brains is also uploading videos elsewhere and you should make a concerted effort to watch them that way. Wean yourself off of the YT tit - there is hardly any new content there worth watching now anyway.

Are you brain damaged or just a zoomer? There are literally two dozen ways to get a video onto the internet that people can watch that aren't Youtube.

The answer is simple. Do you own a house or at least an apartment? If no it's bad

"Owning" property is/can be a major liability on its own. Things like property taxes and specifically insurance are how the local municipalities will extract wealth from you in that case and increase your cost of living.

The law is just words on a piece of paper, enforced by the morality of your neighbors.

Sure that can happen but then you better have an equivalent sum in your bank account or in some conservative investments
