YouTube requiring age verification in a few weeks might actually unironically be my 13th reason

Might actually be the thing to get me to uninstall the app. Would be good for me tho. Still don’t think they should be doing this

For age-restricted content only, like overly violent videos or sexual content

They’re also using AI to monitor all of the content to consume to determine if you’re lying about your age :) so no, it’s everything. And either way they look at it they’re either stalking children or censoring adults

Bc friendly reminder, overly violent videos and sexual content already aren’t allowed on the site. And they have an app designated for kids.

The point is they're only applying age restriction to certain videos. that's a crucial detail

My biggest problem with this is what if it isn’t even accurate? Like what if they make something age restricted that shouldn’t be?

Yeah I get that. AI can't guess accurately at all

There are already age restrictions. There’s an entire app for kids to keep them safe. The problem is they use data to label a certain video as a certain age, and if you watch too much of that you get forced to give YouTube your ID. We gettin kicked off YouTube bc we watched 1 too many Minecraft mod reviews
