YouTube Premium fees vary by country, which motivated some folks to obscure their location
It sounds like the jig is up for YouTube users who snagged cheaper Premium memberships by obscuring their location with virtual private networks (VPNs).
In the U.S., Google charges individual users $14 per month for YouTube Premium, which limits ads and offers a few additional features. But that price varies widely across locales, and some Reddit users say they once managed to snag better deals by pretending to access the service from other countries, PCMag and TechCrunch reported.
