Its sad this is being downvoted. Ethically you should pay to use the service either through ads and personal data or subscription and personal data.
I don't do either because I don't like Google and don't care about being Ethical to them. I understand why they would try and stop me and I've come to terms with the fact that I will have to give up youtube in the next decade.
I don't get it why is ethical when the options includes "... AND personal data".
If you sign into YouTube with a Google account you've opted into your watch history being linked to your online profile. That's not unethical.
@Fizz @Dindonmasker I pay for Youtube Premium.
I still run uBlock Origin on there to cull behind the scenes analytics, and block cross-site cookies from tracking me across the web.
