    Look at the top. The account already has Premium, and Google are still advertising.

      Just to add on, the Do not redeem sir was probably a reference to a viral Kitboga video where a giftcard scammer gets very… agitated with the prank

      I was about to ask if this was a paid premium or modded app.

      Out of curiosity, what rewards?

        I don’t really know, I just want it to shut the fuck up and get out of my face, but I guess this is what I get for playing by the rules, eh?

        3mo gamepass, 6mo walmart shit (you can use their gas pumps and get free deliveries), download videos and some AI features about videos and comments. A friend on my account is trying to get the AI to interact with him on gun and explosive videos. Knowing him he may see how it responds to racists and cumtown as well.

        I have all 5 family slots full and also pay $2/mo for drive space for everyone. I have hundreds of books and some games and apps shared with them as well.

      Trying to keep us paying for premium through the price hikes.

      With family sharing I find it worth it anyway.

      My premium sub doesn’t do this, you can contact google live chat support 24/7 (with a premium sub) to figure this out or to get your money back

      How is this an ad? They are informing you that you can get more out of your subscription. Would it be better that they’re didn’t inform you about this and hid it away in some obscure menu somewhere?

      There are lots of reasons to not like Google/YouTube, but I can’t see how this is one of them.

      Edit: There is also a clearly visible dismiss button.
