   living anywhere else: youtube ads - buy premium to remove ads, twitch ads - buy prime to hide ads
   living in a country under sanctions (e.g. russia): literally zero ads, don't have to pay for anything

     @vertka @s I think it's just google that doesn't want to show ads nor find ways to work with Russia. moreover, somehow there is still a way to buy ads in google adsense from Russia and Russian people will see those ads in android apps under vpn (like ads of russian kfc or something like that)

     @s i think it's not just russia, it's companies who can't provide ads technology and get money from customers from subscription services (note we're legally not allowed for pay since all international payment solutions are closed for us and our local ones are worthless to pay on any international platform). that's probably the reason why we don't have ads anymore.
