  As remitamine explained[1]: > it's not about the issue not related to the US, it's that youtube won't allow access to the video when you're accessing a non-embedable age-restricted video from the EU with passing the new age verification requirement, youtube-dl can't simply bypass this condition. >> I just connected to a US server using VPN, and this is the report i got: > you didn't pass the cookies. and fosam amplified[2]: > If you connect from the EU and have not verified, there is no way without the VPN. If you have already verified your account you can just pass the cookies and download.
