Because paying a penny won't prevent ads or tracking.

Paying for an ad-free service will prevent ads.
Example: YouTube Premium.
Great example! YouTube is currently being sued because people with Premium still get ads.
Granted they're the ones creators put in their own videos, which is kind of a technicality. Premium does block the overt ads that YouTube itself pushes. (There's no telling if it blocks submarine ads that are videos) However, it was promised to block all ads, and that's what the lawsuit is about.
If ads is embedded in video(like product placement, sponsor etc). You still see the ads.
Amazon prime added the ads back no?
