Pay for YouTube Premium. There are some countries with highly devalued currencies you can take a VPN trip to. There are some VPNs which let you book a free trial trip. There are also some virtual banks where you can get a virtual credit card to use on those trips. As a bonus you get YouTube Music to play on you Google Nest Mini. Actually... that's the only reason I pay for YouTube Premium, otherwise use NewPipe.
wouldnt they just ban your account for this? I mean its google they know where you live, unless you intent to always use google/youtube with your vpn on. I dunno
As far as I've heard, they might cancel or bump up/move the subscription, but otherwise you are allowed to use the service itself in any country regardless of where you registered for it. Don't put in false data like a fake address, but fortunately some countries don't ask for one, so... 🤷
Thats fair I guess, still seems too risky for me
Using a VPN workaround sounds like a potential account ban risk. Would not recommend for someone's main account.
