Ive been around for a lot longer than them offering to let you pay for better service. Adblocking for quite a while was literally a malware concern
Then I paid a bit extra with my phone service to get the premium, which at the cost it was felt like proper value. Then Google took that perk away while charging me the same amount, demanding their price hiked Premium cost to keep using their service, or I could go back to ad blocking
Google did this to themselves, homie
