I never said "no subscription". There is also obviously a HUGE difference between advertising and advertising. Somehow they could run the page with far less intrusive ads before. It is now a problem and not enough because you have to generate more and more revenue every year. This is however neither a problem of the visitor nor is it required to "pay it's costs". It is pure greed. Not more and not less. So please, do us a favour and stop using this meme. YT is not going to stop working with less greed and less mind/attention rape.
