A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I was paying for it at a legacy price still but that gets wiped out with this I guess. Canceled.

It's been forever since I've used a paid YouTube subscription. I didn't realize how much it has increased.

Or....you can use a VPN and change your location to Turkey and see the price that you get after.

youll have to pay with a cc based in, say the UK, so they'll automatically change your location back to the UK. doesn't work anymore.

I actually recently just changed my cc info to another local cc and I'm still just paying like $2/month and I have a coworker that is still paying the same price to when she signed up in Asia.
