I’d really hope my tax money doesn’t go to something like this. But I’m sure it’s paid for dumber things.

Privacy.com is what I use. It lets you generate virtual cards to use so you don’t need to hand over your actual debit card. You can also set a maximum per day/month/transaction.

You don’t need root because this is its own app unlike the apps like revance which patch your existing YouTube app.

Not to mention cracked games let you avoid the company’s terrible launcher (looking at you uplay). Steaming pile of unnecessary garbage. I have cracked copies of a lot of the games I own for reasons like that, Pirated games just have a better offline experience in my opinion. Online games are another story.
