You still have ads despite paying YouTube not to show you ads. They're hardcoded into the videos themselves now. You're also tracked and profiled by Google which is an indignity unto itself.

I wonder if paying for YT premium would disable tracking as well as the ads, and I feel like the answer is obvious
