Google has initiated a crackdown on YouTube Premium subscriptions obtained through VPN workarounds. Users who have used VPNs to gain access to cheaper regional pricing, such as purchasing a Ukrainian YouTube Premium subscription for a few dollars instead of the $14 per month cost in the US, are seeing their subscriptions canceled. This move is aimed at curbing the exploitation of regional pricing differences and ensuring that users pay the standard rates for their respective regions. A YouTube support agent confirmed the company's actions, highlighting the firm's commitment to maintaining fair pricing practices. The crackdown was reported by @iamdamienwilde.
