    IIRC that was specifically related to YouTube testing out a new Premium tier that allowed some ads, but also cost less, and only in specific markets.

    Not everywhere, and not regular Premium subscriptions, unlike how most posts try to make it sound, including yours. But don’t let the facts get in the way.

      Were they testing those ads on users that paid for an ad free premium or were they testing on users that bought a lower tier?

      …for now.

      Let’s keep that in mind.
