It's not being talked about right this moment because a bunch of people have done research and seeked legal counsel and have concluded that this isn't the apocalypse that it's been hyped up to be. It's still cause for concern because making videos strictly for kids is just not gonna be a lucrative business anymore (so channels like Ryan's World are screwed, pretty much), thus hurting kids' content to the point where all they will see IS the more mature videos (like how weekend morning cartoon blocks effectively got the can in place of news and more mature shows). But the majority of content creators shouldn't be affected. And if you do get struck with a fee that you felt wasn't earned you can always legally fight it. But that'll be few and far between.

I do think this new system should be reworked a bit because it'll do the exact opposite of protecting children, but again, it's not an apocalypse for everybody on Youtube. Even FTC members say that there's lots of content on Youtube that is family friendly that will not be considered on the "for kids" spectrum. So all that will be safe. And besides, Youtube and Google caused all this to happen in the first place due to allowing data collection to be done on children's videos. That's shady as all hell.
