    As someone who uses and really enjoys Youtube Premium this upsets me. Feels very counter-to what is agreed on purchase:

    I wonder if it’s possible to file a complaint as false advertisement. As part of the subscription it even says in the FAQ “ad-free” which this is definitely not. I’m not a lawyer though and this is not legal advice.

      This reminds me of the “Ad free” tier of Paramount Plus. There were unskippable ads for other paramount shows. And the 5 second bumper counted as an ad and was unskippable.

      I’m not a lawyer but anyone with a brain cell would agree this is false advertising at least, possibly breach of contract depending on what the TOS says.
