Huh, weird. I have premium and the only ads I see are the sponsor spots creators put directly in their videos. When I go to skip them, it even gives me a button to skip those, too.

But if I saw ads despite paying for premium I'd tell them to fuck off, too.

Yeah, this was a while ago.

I had Taylor Swift ads all over my home page despite premium.
Then some other artist after that.

Ew. Yeah I'd be upset too.
