> To help us identify made for kids content, in November we introduced a new audience setting in YouTube Studio to help creators indicate whether or not their content is made for kids.
So, in November they asked you to say if your video was made for kids. They likely had this intention, but wanted to first collect the data they needed voluntarily. If I were a content creator that self-identified their videos as for children, I would be angry. This just goes to show the unexpected and against-your-interest things companies will do with your data.
