It's more than triple for a family plan, but you share it with people and you land well under 5 euros per person.
Please tell me how to install chrome or Firefox on a corporate laptop without admin rights, I'll wait.
Firefox doesn’t require admin perms to install, so… double click the installer? Did you need screenshots on how to do that?…
Not familiar with Group Policies, I see?
If your work PC is that locked down, why are you watching YouTube videos on it? This seems like a manufactured issue at this point.
So let’s go down the list: Company PC, no admin privs, group policy forbidding any executable from running, no Firefox or chrome, I assume your next limitation is that edge addons aren’t allowed, but for some reason YouTube is fine?
Then you’re right, in the extremely tailored for premium situation, premium wins out over ublock origin. I’m shocked. Good job.
Now for the 99.9% of the rest of us we can still avoid paying Google by simply using ublock origin. Shoo.
Or TVs. Or people who want to sync between devices. Or download for offline. Or compensate creators. Or not bother installing 50 scripts and updating them 3 times a day. Or just do the right thing. You know, 99.99% of people.
You’re kinda just making it obvious you don’t understand what is being talked about here. Half of what you’re talking about has nothing to do with premium, or adblock. “The right thing to do” is a crock of shit. And the appeal to majority doesn’t help your case either.
You want premium, good for you. But don’t make shit up to strengthen your position. It just makes it obvious you don’t know what you’re talking about.
"appeal to the majority doesn't help your case"
- guy who used appeal to the majority first
That wasn’t an appeal to majority. 🤦🏻♂️
