Yea this is sketchy AF. Not to mention concerning due to its potential implications. Going to be interesting how not only YouTube but other platforms deal with this.

All this will do is piss off creators due to monetization reasons, lead them to complain against YouTube, forcing YouTube to change their monetization process, which will lead to again changing the way videos are made.

And at the end, they will find a way to again shove ads in your face more efficiently.

You get access to news from publishers like WSJ, Wired, LA Times, National Review, as well as magazines from many others. You also get access to news audio which is not bad.

Im already finding it a hard sell for my News+ sub. This price increase may just lead me to cancel at this point.

Oh in no way am I saying that Google is a good guy here. I’m sure that if it were up to them, they would keep the current status quo.

They are only doing this due to the pressure they’re getting for their poor track record of supporting their devices. But it is still a step in the direction nonetheless.

Agreed. This and Googles announcement last month of supporting new chromebooks for 10 years is a step in the right direction.

That’s a potential solution but the problem is that IT departments in schools are replacing them when they reach EOL in regards to security patches (since testing software isn’t supported). While there may be people interested, I can’t see many wanting to buy chromebooks that won’t be getting security patches and are sluggish.

The amount of Chromebooks that go to waste in K-12 schools is insane. So it is nice to see Google taking action on this, especially since its largest market are schools.

It won’t just be electric cars, it’ll be all new model cars from manufacturing companies. At least until ICE is phased out.

I just kept thinking of Abode Security

Battlefield 4. Was there from the buggy as shit release on the PS4 back in 2013. A little over 600 hours. Some of my best gaming memories.
