I’m asking because I just had to verify my age thanks to YouTube requiring me to watch a video that was age restricted.

    It only becomes normalized if we continue using those services… If these co’s saw a meaurable reduction in engagement after implenting these rules they would back peddle. The almighty dollar is king afterall.

      The problem is they are trying and basically succeeding in age verifying the o/s. The only choice at that point is to never go online or use an electronic device again. Not sure how that works
