    Run a personal VPN server at the home address and have external users route through it. I’d think it’d work for any subscription service doing this crap. I’m surprised nobody has started selling a turnkey self-hosted VPN device that even a non-techie can get running in a few steps - all the end users would need is an app that does split tunneling for the media players.

      Or just don’t pay for this shit that sooner or later will win the race anyway, no matter how much “resistance” you’d show.

      I’m thinking of doing the same but the issue is setting up the policy based routing so that only YouTube goes through that VPN.
