>I don't understand why that YouTube video requires age verification. As far as I know that prevents it from being played to anyone not logged in, including embeds, and severely limits people from seeing it.
Yep. Usually, they play when changing from

to
https://www.youtube.com/embed/0yXTHODE24Q
but not this.
But
youtube-dl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yXTHODE24Q
works. :D https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Youtube-dl https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Youtube-dl
- Ajedi32 7y agoThanks. It's really obnoxious that they make you sign-in to verify your age, rather than just enter your birth date like some other sites. Especially since AFAIK it's impossible to create a Google account these days without giving them your phone number (thus exposing your identity). For politically sensitive videos such as this, such restrictions seem like a particularly bad idea.
- SirLotsaLocks 7y agoI'm pretty sure you can, but if you're creating a lot of the mat once they begin to require it.
- Ajedi32 7y agoI don't think you can. I tried creating a Google account anonymously once just to see if it was possible. A verified phone number was strictly required and they refused to let me use numbers from any of the anonymized online phone services I tried. Maybe they would have let me skip that step if I was connected over my home IP address rather than TOR, but doing it that way would have sort of defeated the purpose of not giving them my phone number in the first place (anonymity).

- autoexec 7y agoI've used that for a few years no. You don't even need to enable JS for that domain.
