There is always a grift, I’d expect the charge to users to be probably 20-50% higher than the revenue from normal users.

Why would paid users need to compensate for free users? This is a per user choice between ad personalization or a monthly fee. The “free” users will still be generating revenue the existing way.

The paid version is ad-free.
The free version still has all the ads.
Both will generate revenue.
Except they are not forcing you to pay. You can still use it as it is right now.

Yes. I think they are padding this to make it feel more punitive. This flips the bird to the regulatory body, and discourages people from switching. Frankly I’m surprised they didn’t make it higher.
