You are obviously asking ‘awkward’ questions ☺️ You might have issues with applying an adblocker to your TVs.
Personally, I don’t like the idea of being signed in and tracked. But if Premium at the equivalent of US$50 per annum is acceptable to you( @lopburi3 ) then why not?Actually I meant with Premium, on different devices not ublock. I should have been clearer about that, sorry.

Another option for payment is yearly CC, without automatic billing, of 1,590 baht.
As said the music is worth the extra cost for many people. For others downloads are an attractive option.
Interesting option. Will look into that. 👍🏻

I have used YouTube premium for years and wouldn't be without it.
Purely for the ability to download videos over wifi and watch them later in my own time.
Yes, sounds good. I wish I'd looked into this much sooner. 👍🏻

I became a Premium member a few months ago and have not regretted it. All adds are removed with the exception of those inserted by YouTubers themselves into their videos. It's easy to fast forward through these to avoid the ubiquitous adds for the green gunk they all seem to have for breakfast.
For details on plans, costs, payments, etc. I simply clicked on the "Premium" item in YouTube's index.
May I ask....how many different devices can you use it on? I have 2 android phones (one is without sim card) and two tv's (one's in another location. 🤔

That was the information you were asking for.
But Morch gave you the free solution.
It works. Took 30 seconds to locate and install the uBlock extension for Firefox. Works perfectly once other adblockers are disabled on the Youtube page.
So ublock's free? That's good to know. 👍🏻
Thanks.

I don't see any adverts. I don't know how anyone can tolerate the adverts, especially when they interrupt videos/songs.
Well, I guess if you don't see 'em, I shouldn't either.....hopefully. 😉🙏

Can't agree more ... it works a treat with utube and removes so much clutter everywhere you browse too. Completely different internet with Ublock Origin.
Is it free? 🤔

Right. Low cost and my phone package is with AIS. I'll be down there tomorrow.
Thank you. 👍🏻🙏🙏🙏🙏
Oh, by the way, is it a genuine NO-commercial thing?
Or...will I still sometimes hear that 'shopee' horror, but just less often?
I ask, because I would prefer NO commercials like that ever again! 🙂

Help needed. I seek information & advice regarding using 'You-tube Premium.
If I have ro listen to 5 seconds of the 'Shopee!' commercial one more time, I may lose control over my actions, resulting in calamitous tragedy.....potentially. 😉
So I beg those who know: How much is it? And is it worth it?
And....importantly.......if it's reasonably priced (let's say, under 400 baht per month) and worth it, how do I sign up to it, without a credit card or any kind of online payment set-up?

You've got to love how some seem to get around the ban on marketing beer on social media.
While others, yea you, over there, the MovrForward MP, yea I'm talking about you, seem to be prosecuted.
Odd justice system.
Glad to see some are paying attention. 👍🏻
I assume you're using the word 'odd' as a synonym for other, less euphemistic but more accurate expressions like 'totally corrupt....rigged.....unjust.....etc.. (If so, I don't blame you.) 😎

Seems to me that israel may win the "battle" ( it's not really a battle as that implies 2 sides able to fight but this is a one sided conflict where the israelis bomb Gaza with impunity, so it's just a slaughter ), but will lose the war. The longer it goes on, the more people all around the world will turn against israel, and if the israelis don't let aid in and thousands die of starvation, or wounds, they won't just be talking, like that useless mob in the UN, they will be taking action.
It's ironic that for decades most of the world has ignored the israeli/ Palestinian conflict, and allowed israel to oppress a people, but by this slaughter they are waking the world up to the injustice of it all, and they don't like it one little bit.
netanyahu thinks he's winning, but he's only looking in the mirror.
Fully agree with your comment & opinion. 👍

The Countries that oppose Israel will have noticed that Hamas is in the process of being wiped out and will soon be non existent ,.
The Iranian regime will bare that in mind when they consider attacking Israel and if Iran don't join in with current war, its highly unlikely that will wage war in the future .
This current conflict will make Israel's position stronger , with the Palestinians losing support from people who oppose terrorism
'Islamic terrorism' was the clue to where you're coming from, Nick.
I don't mean that disparagingly, but it does allow me to respond.
About Hamas.....are you aware, Nick, that Israel created Hamas? To offset the popularity of Arafat's PLO movement? And who was instrumental in that? Surprise, surprise....Netanyahu. Who btw was key to Rabin's assassination after the Oslo peace accords in early 90's.
It's murky, Nick. You have to go deeper into this. Otherwise, the mainstream media in the west and the govt BS they get paid to support.......pulls a fast-one on ya.........and then you're hooked.

75 years references Israel's creation. If you are in the position that Israel should close shop and cancel itself, I guess that's not much of an option, and not even much of discussion point.
To put some facts into it, post the 1949 cease fire agreements, the West Bank was occupied (and later annexed) by Jordan, while Egypt had it's own de-facto occupation in the Gaza Strip (with a short stint of a Palestinian puppet government). These lasted until 1967 - which is usually what people refer to with regard to the Israeli occupation. Should be noted that the Palestinians did not have as many issues being occupied by Egypt and Jordan, and there was no serious attempt to claim independence, freedom or sovereignty.
1949 cease-fire agreement? Can we go back a year, 1948? It is undisputably chronicled on record as being the year during which the displaced Palestinians have ever since called 'The Naqba'........the brutal expulsion of their people from countless towns and villages to allow the usurpation of that land by the incoming jewish settlers, themselves victims of their own tragic diaspora and persecution.
Egypt's and Jordan's role historically? That's 'smokescreen' stuff. Please, stick to the firmly-rooted fundamental issue of how Israel not only stole the Palestinian land, but committed atrocities to do so....with the support of the west.

The Jews are indigenous there.
The Arabs are the Johnny come latelies.
When you say over do you mean River to the sea genocide?
Apart from being partially right, Jingthing .....which always helps to dubiously support one's point (imho), you're suggesting that I support genocide of the Israeli people from 'River to the sea'? Did I get that right? It's a bit ambiguous.
If I'm wrong and I misconstrued that last point I do apologise.

What will happen to all the Israelis in Israel when Israel finishes ?
Well, it won't 'finish'. It may, I hope, go through an unpleasant (but wholly deserved) decade or two of 'adjustment'....forced upon it by outside world power & influence......whereby the cause for this long-time & present tragedy is ended......and sorted out according to 'Queensbury Rules'.

The more important aspect, IMO, are compensations to the families of those murdered, and those who were injured. At least on that front, the handling seems ok.
While I think Netanyahu is vile person, a bad leader and a whole lot of other nasty stuff - he's not far-right. He is mainly about Netanyahu, less of an ideologist. His coalition partners are another case, yes. If you need a reference, think Trump. Birds of a feather, except Netanyahu is smarter.
As far as I'm aware the current ambassador is a foreign office appointment, not Netanyahu's. The Israeli Foreign Office (not the minister in charge, that's political) and its workers are often denigrated as lefties etc. by the right.
Thanks for your reply.
I feel in some regard that you may have a more 'informed' view than I do, particularly re my hasty & possibly unfair assertion that all embassy staff and the declarations they issue in public are.......to be considered as just plain disingenuous, zionist maniacs etc.. So I do accept your comments as not only interesting but probably nearer the mark than I may have been.
I am forgetting that apparently the majority of Israelis do actually see Netanyahu as......well, what he is: a political hustler whose personal & political credibilty is NOT at all in accord with the reaĺ, long-term interests of the Israeli state.
Your point about Netanyahu's resemblance to Trump, in many, easily discernible ways.....is spot on. 👍

'Israel's Options'....?
It's narrowed down to one now: Israel's 75 year immoral and horribly unjust occupation of the land on which the indigenous Palestinians rightfully call their homeland......is over.
Not over now, of course. But it will be, even in my lifetime.....and I'm old! 🇰🇼

Sterile, diplomatic protocol & nothing more.
Those who serve the state of Israel (so not Isrealis) at embassy level are, at best - and I'm kindly allowing for a very, very slight degree of doubt here - only about 1 single millimetre to the left of the furthest far-right-zionist-war-criminal you can imagine......Bibi Netanyahu.

tm30 needed for 12 day stay?
Sorry, pomchop....don't actually know the answer to that, as I have longer-stay extensions and am not familiar with all the TM30 requirements & rules regarding other visa types, ie tourist. (Tbh....don't even fully know the requirements & rules re my own visa/extension type....it's all very confusing - to me anyway!)

"...every Hamas member was "a dead man""
Well, I suppose it is time for Hamas to recruit some women then...
But it's all good, in line with the OT and all about conquering those who might live on "the promised land":
"But of the cities ... which the Lord thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth." Kill the old men and women, the sick and the dying, the blind and the lame, pregnant mothers, nursing mothers, infants, toddlers, and babies." Deuteronomy 20:16 (went without saying kill all the men)
Now you may say "Hey wait, that is what Muslim Hamas did". True, but they do refer to Jews as "People of the book" (same sort of origin)... just following God's directions is all
Religion poisons everything
Re this idea of a land promised to the chosen ones by God himself, I heard the wonderful George Galloway yesterday describe such a thing thus.....(or nearabouts).....as 'God as a real estate agent'.
I should make clear that George did NOT make that remark in support of such a notion, but as a means to highlight the wicked absurdity of it.
And yes, Emdog, your point about 'Religions poison everything'...., is an idea that is getting harder & to oppose, very quickly.....though sadly not quick enough to save countless lives.
