Meanwhile here I am with a YouTube premium account that they don’t charge me for
Back when YouTube red/premium came out. I was big into vulnerability/pen testing, and I used several scripts and spoofing techniques to try to get it for free. I failed and failed and failed. But then after I had given up. I decided to just watch some YouTube videos, and realized it said I had premium. And then I checked on the YouTube app, I had premium there too.
Years and years have gone by. I still have YouTube red/premium for free. They have never charged me. And I even had support transfer the YouTube red/premium to a new email at one point. Not ONE question. It says active and a price. But, I’m never charged. And the card that is on file, isn’t even active anymore and hasn’t been for about 2 years.
My theory is, one or several of my attempts combined with each other to get it for free. Glitched their system somehow or straight up allowed me to have it for free. But in terms of what I did. Whatever I did, I did everything again recently for my boyfriend, all the failed methods, everything again like I did for me. In the same exact order. Same error messages, same failed connection messages, same everything I went through. Didn’t have hope for him, but. He goes on YouTube later that night, and has premium.
This got downvoted because two people were salty. This means, my comment literally made two people (at the time of writing) so upset that I have it and they don’t. Wake up people, why do you let people you don’t even know upset you? Especially when it doesn’t effect you.
