In my country (Norway) you're not allowed to target children with marketing.
Coca-cola has already had a smack on their fingers for using "influencers" whose primary audience are kids on their channel [1].
This might hit google directly if enough of this stuff happens. The end result I hope is that videos with kids are forced private so the parents can't use them as props to make money. It's not like the children have any say when their life is being spread out on the net.
The US which is the main base of google has unfortunately not ratified the convention on the rights of children [2] but in article 16 of this treaty [3] it is stated that children have a right to privacy.
