YouTube Will Bully you into subscription and even so will show you ads

YouTube did it. It managed to get me to subscribe. With loud (way louder than the videos), repetitive, unskippable ads that has nothing to do with me, I figured YouTube was trying to bully me into paying, so I did. I payed, so I could enjoy videos without being interrupted every 5 minutes. But you know what? YouTube is still not happy. Today when I opened the app on my phone, it still showed me an add. It is infuriating at least. This won't probably make it, but I needed to share.

The image above is an ad inserted in the middle of the recommend content, but before that there was a full page ad about the same crap, which I could not get a screenshot.
