It's not hypothetical. You quoted a post claiming I said something that literally said the opposite.Yawn
You are deliberately claiming I either said the opposite of what I said each post in the post you quote. Or repeating what I said, to characterize something I never said.
You aren't even trying to hide your agenda at this point.
And now you're just going into incoherent rambling, the usual pattern with you. I said it was hypocritical. You claimed I'm not even trying for repeating a post I've already made when you're the one who did that first. You have severe self-awareness issues along with your reading comprehension.Nothing I said was incoherent.
And you logged into your account solely to air your personal grudge and grievances you have with women.None of my post said this either, but given your last post you quoted..... lol
You really have no self-awareness. The post you made didn't address my preceding post at all either. My repeat of my post was at least addressing how you lack nuance and how youtube isn't targeted at kids either.
You aren't even following along with the posts you quote as they say the complete opposite. You literally quoted a post from me that says if YouTube wants to platform adult content, put it behind an age consent wall . Your response to that was to quote that, and reply with a fabricated talking point that I argued "because youtube has kids that use it doesn't mean 18+ content can't be platformed there."
It's odd to me that this has prompted such a vigorous debate. Not every site on the internet needs to have nudity available. That's one of the reasons I still visit gamefaqs.gamespot.com
No to hijack the conversation, but if you truly feel that way, do you feel the same about other apps and platforms such as Max, Showtime Anytime, Netflix, Prime, etc?Feel free to hijack, I entertained the other conversation way longer than I should have.
Youtube does have least some level of sensitive content age walling, though it's not applied to that many things. it's a prompt that says it contains suggestive content or whatever and asks if you're okay viewing it, and also requires you to be logged into an account to see it
edit: ok slightly misremembered what it says. but it is, without a doubt, an age gate

Answering your question, yes.
Wasn't aware they didn't have mature content blocked by an age consent wall already. An age consent wall isn't removing the content, it's just an added layer to deter underage users.
If YouTube wants to platform it, put it behind an age consent wall at least
To note, streaming services like Max can allow you to restrict access to r rated content. Plus they are paid services. Not a good comparsion to youtube.
there's a while meta of talking about topics like self-foreversleep without triggering age restriction.
Plus a video age restricted doesn't appear in search and doesn't earn ad revenueThey do still appear in search, it's how I found a video to take that screenshot. Wouldn't be surprised if they're search de-prioritized, though. They also do still earn ad revenue, but probably not as much because many advertisers do not like to appear near that sort of content.
