    That’s one way to resolve things, buying YT Premium and being left at peace. While I respect that, part of me thinks that it is giving in to the pressure, that what Google wants is for people to give in. Thus, even if I do have the money for it, I don’t think I would as a matter of principle.

    What that principle is, I guess at this point, I‌’d admit that I am just pretty much against what Google symbolizes–big tech swallowing up everything. And by refusing to give in and buying YT Premium, I feel like I am resisting and protecting whatever few principles I’ve got left.
