I've been having some weird issues over the last few days with not being able to search for things in YouTube when I'm logged in via SmartTube account.
So I decided to try accessing it directly. Well guess what? It looks like YouTube now requires age verification in AU.
Sorry Google... I'm not uploading my passport, drivers licence or govt id to watch your shit. I am however now very incentivized to use Tube archivist and Jellyfin, plus cron job to scrape your shit with gleeful abandon.
Thank you for joining us Anthony Albanese, but many of us are aware that is bullshit, and that if you wanted to protect people, you would be doing a lot of things very differently.
I don't know who that is or who you think I am but I certainly don't control any of that.
Albo is our prime minister. That commenter is sarcastically suggesting that you're quoting the party's talking points.
Wouldn't the prime minister be the one responsible for that legislation? Wouldn't the party's talking points be "yes we did that?" All I know is it's not Google. Meta, surely, but ultimately the buck stops with the politicians.
That was the point, the post is about how it is in Australia "AU"
...what was the point again? That you agree that it's not Google?
My mistake, hello donald trump
