I'd gladly pay for YouTube without ads if I trusted that it would remain ad free, but the track record from various companies on this is not good.

Youtube premium has remained adfree as far as I know.

Best to try it out yourself. I can't watch Youtube with Ads ever anymore.

If a 100% Ad-free youtube premium at the current price point ever went away, something would have to change about the ads.

I get an ad-free YouTube experience for $0 with software. Why do you pay for it?

Because I want to actually support content creators. I also want it to be more normalized to pay for things vs having ad supported content.

Do you think giving money to the world's largest ad agency will encourage them to change their business model?

It’s an opt out fee from Ads.
