So this is some bollocks. Guess I'll be cancelling our plan since it's only used by two of us.

Current price $17.99/month, new price $32.99/month.

If they boiled the frog better I would probably have accepted a $5/month price rise, and then another later... But close to doubling in one go is a no from me dawg.

Thank you for being a loyal member throughout our journey. We created YouTube Premium so that you could enjoy all the videos and music you love without interruptions.‌

To continue delivering great service and features, we are increasing the YouTube Premium family plan price to A$32.99/month. We don't make these decisions lightly, and this update will allow us to continue to improve YouTube Premium and support the creators and artists you watch on YouTube. This is the first ever price increase for your subscription.

People saying I'll cancel will not cancel. I've seen so many corp simps in the last few years that I lost faith in humanity

But it's on the internet, it must be true!

"I will never set foot in this shop again!!", a customer said to me when we couldn't refund her thing because she broke it and it was her fault.

A couple of days later...

So many Google bootlickers in these threads these days

@blackbirdbiryani @yoz

I'm indelibly attached to Google and I hate it.

The power is in the hands of consumers and not the other way around. All we need to do is educate the consumers and see how fast google breaks.

I haven't seen any in this thread or any of the other social media conversations I have online.

Maybe I'm bubbled but everyone seems to be shitting on Google. Can you link me to 3-4 of these bootlicker comments please? I'm interested in what you're seeing
