Now $0.18 less (per month) than 6 months ago due to favourable exchange rate (with full credit to HiDave for the original find). Been on this plan for a while now and works flawlessly with 28 Degrees MasterCard (no fees). Please stay safe, and enjoy :)

Very straightforward process:

  1. Use a VPN to connect to an Argentinian server (required only for registration).
  2. Open an incognito browser window.
  3. Sign up via the main link in this post (or here).
  4. If an Argentinian address is requested, use this link.
  5. Pay with a card that has no foreign exchange fees.
  6. Enjoy the full benefits of YouTube Premium.

    How does this work when you have used an Australian address for your Google account that’s linked to your YouTube account?

    Does this cause any issues?

      Yes the internet police come knocking on your door. But since you have a different address they can't find you

      • stirlo on 12/06/2021 - 10:48

        Lol.

        But seriously Google has a long history of permanently banning accounts and even preventing the person behind that account from opening a new one when accounts violate their terms of service. I’m sure this is a (very minor) violation but considering the amount I have invested in Google saving a few dollars a month is not worth taking much risk that I be banned forever…

            @Chchnu: Referring to the fact that my entire families emails for the last 14 years have been linked to my legacy (free) Google Apps For Your Domain setup, ~150gb of photos in Google Photos, ~100 places tagged in various Google maps lists. Home assistant automation setup in Google Cloud, owning half a dozen Google Home devices, a couple of older android phones and Google arranged the registration of my domain… would not be fun to rebuild all that…

              @stirlo: The legacy free google apps (now GSuite) for your own domain is the bomb. That has me right there. Plus I'm fully into the Android cult - those Apple people are going to hell. When I opened my gmail account, I actually imported years of mail I had. I've got mail going back to 2000. That large history combined with google's search has come in handy now and then.

        • RickyJ on 18/06/2021 - 22:49

          From your link:

          Deeper Network is unlike TOR in implementation and avoids a lot of TOR’s pitfalls. Deeper Network is based off of a truly decentralized implementation (public blockchain and a unique consensus algorithm); it is able to offer faster connection, more privacy and security. The Deeper Connect Mini is a user friendly device designed with user experience in mind while abstracting away the implementation details.

    • Miroslav on 12/06/2021 - 15:18

      Exactly, Adblock Plus for example works like a charm - no YT ads at all. I guess browsers with built in ad blockers (Opera, Brave, Vivaldi, …) would be as useful.

      • [Deactivated] on 12/06/2021 - 23:10

        Opera doesn't, I used to use it for this reason. There are specific yt extensions that you can add

        Adblock plus' ability comes and goes. It isn't even as effective at blocking display image ads as it used to be

        • Miroslav on 12/06/2021 - 23:21

          As far as Youtube is concerned, I've been using Adblock Plus daily for almost 10 years to watch my playlists with no ads and never had a problem. I've used it with original Opera and various chromium based browsers.

          Regarding web pages and ads on them, Adblock lets a few though from time to time, then they fix it. A game of cat and mouse I guess.

        The YouTube music app tries to do this when you first download it, but there's a menu in the settings where you can pick your favourite artists and genres and just choose the western ones which makes it normal again. YouTube itself just gives recommendations based upon your activity so it's totally fine

      Yes, I'm in a Spotify family as well - recommends me normal music based on my interests but some of the "editors picks" which is a complete different category are Bollywood playlists lol

      Netflix I was in but a lot harder to do so scrapped it and used Stan (and Amazon Prime video!) instead

      My 2¢: it's a lot easier to just join an OzB family that already has it set up, get a discounted price without any worries
