context: "YouTube is implementing an AI-powered age verification system to determine if users are 18 or under. This system will analyze various factors, such as the types of videos watched and the account's longevity, to estimate a user's age. If a user is flagged as underage, YouTube will apply age-appropriate restrictions, including limiting personalized ads and restricting access to age-restricted content. Users can verify their age using a government ID, credit card, or selfie if they believe the AI's estimate is incorrect."
this is a major problem for YT, so. on august 13th, the plan is to do anything but Youtube.
