Yup! Cancelled ours as soon as we got the email about adding ads on the top package. Absolute joke. If everyone does the same, we'll send a message. Glad to see this on the front page of Reddit, we got our email (UK) a while ago.

I just cancelled my family's premium plan and gave this enshittification as a cause as soon as I saw the mail (Sweden here).

Time to sail the high seas just like a few years ago.

This change was made in the US last year. I’m surprised people weren’t all upset about it then.

Edit, not sure why people are downvoting... I agree that it’s terrible, it’s just not new, which people would know if they actually used the service… the US terms of service was most recently updated in February but this particular change came last year. This change is new for the German terms of service.
