Where are you getting that from? YouTube premium is ad free (so far).

The link I posted said this:

In the U.S., Google charges individual users $14 per month for YouTube Premium, which limits ads and offers a few additional features.

So it 'limits ads' which means there are still ads.

It’s a poorly worded article. YouTube premium “limits ads” as in being completely ad free (besides in-video sponsorships). YouTube hasn’t gone down that route yet.
