YouTube doesn't create the content. They host content created by others. It's the creator's responsibility to comply with accessibility laws. I don't know how it works in Israel, but in the US, the ADA requires education

And as the band gets older, their fanbase gets older too. I wouldn't be surprised if many more Blink-182 fans are MBAs/professionals than teenagers these days.

The browser engine is the same, but all of the UI surrounding it is provided by the app, so they could have done something that caused a slowdown.
