They've just been classified as 'restricted'. Only parents of young children use this. This is completely fine.
- dogma1138 10y agoNo it's not fine, I've watched a few of those videos and there is nothing there that should be restricted for young children, there wasn't anything even that controversial just a different political view. Since restricted videos can be managed as part of the G-Suite (can be either done via account or more commonly network level blocking) organizations such as workplaces and schools can and often do block them this isn't some parental control that is rarely used. This type of restriction where YouTube is redirected to restrict.youtube.com (https://support.google.com/a/answer/6214622 https://support.google.com/a/answer/6214622) is actually fairly common in many places, and it can be done transparently so you don't even notice it. So yeah this is not fine, and this is a big problem.
