The problem there is that you're giving more money to Alphabet but not giving your YouTube Premium views to the content creators. I understand not wanting to be tracked, but I feel like this is the worst scenario.
Might be the worst scenario, but nobody can know about my celebrity foot fetish. And I'm unwilling to be tracked.
As far as I'm concerned YouTube premium tracking, encouraging people to be logged into Google accounts, just like grocery stores loyalty programs. It's a premium to encourage you to be tracked.
That's all fair, I would just say cancel your YouTube Premium then.
