Currently I‘m sharing a premium family subscription with as many users as Google allows which is like 6€ for each user.
If Google ever cracks down on sharing or this gets much more expensive (because even 6€ is too much IMO) we’re probably just gonna cancel the subscription altogether.
They did crack down on my family. They realized we were all at different IPs and cut us off.
That sucks. For us it’s been working great for a few years already but we’re also all based in the same city, usually share a lot with each other, often meet (and log into the same wifi) and possibly most importantly, we’re based in the EU where tech companies are usually less anti-consumer as they’re more worried about fines.
