As they should.

Unfortunately the problem is that the rules don’t apply to the totalitarian party

More importantly, the media would go 24/7 coverage on it, the public would get enraged, and that would put a stop to it.

Everything is the result of controlling the public narrative. If the left wants something to become an issue, the media makes it an issue that is forced into the public discussion. If the left doesn't want something to become an issue, the media doesn't its absolute best to make sure that it flies under the public radar, if at all possible.

FreeTube is another option. I use that to watch age restricted videos without signing in.

Yeah need to grab that GMSCore for MicroGServices. Pain in the ass but better than paying for Youtube premium.

Reminder to use yt-dlp to save videos because google can flip a switch and lock everything behind widevine DRM at any moment.

2 things.

1 - Why does youtube have your home address.

2 - The DOJ can easily get this anyway, asking Youtube to provide it is just playing games.

They have your billing address if you pay for premium or have ever bought a movie or something on their service.

If you put your actual real address down when purchasing a virtual product you deserve what you get.

Let google get your address the old fashioned way, triangulating which towers your phone continuously pings each night.

Billing address is required by some banks and CCs to accept certain online transactions.

This no longer implies but confirms that youtube knows they have certain videos up that they could take down, but do not, for the purpose of getting people onto lists.

That societal disintegration/descent into a full-on dystopia is happening real fast now, hey?

Seriously, whether IRL or online, it just becomes ever more patently obvious, sadly...

But the normies will continue to consoom and ignore all the signs, naturally...

If they really want to talk about me watching people put cucumbers behind their cats to scare them I'm up for it.

They better bring pizza or I'm calling the sheriff.
