So it seems they are only expecting ads in YouTube music, so I understand when they are then confused to see ads in their YouTube videos

Yes, that sounds bad. But how else should we decide who to deport? How could we decide who is a "bad immigrant"? Maybe they get citizen status and then we realized they are also a criminal? Should they then also be deported? A US citizen? Maybe yes!

I only see two solutions:

  1. Directly deport every foreigner, no matter if anyone thinks they are good or bad
  2. Deport everyone who ever got sentenced because of anything. Independent of their citizen status. This might include a lot of people that are thought of as American, but almost nobody is originally from here. And this way we clearly get rid of all the bad people.

(/s, just to be sure)

Yes, but the YouTube video is blocked outside of the US

Do you have a bug report for not being able to restore your purchases? I just tried it a few weeks ago with my new phone and it did work without any problems.

Probably because PayPal does not allow it.

There are now a lot of people who think we should be nice to billionaires because they also could become one sometime in the future

 

I pronounce the 'u' in 'pronunciation' like in 'putting' but the 'ou' in 'pronounce' like in 'wound'.
