Worried about something kinda dumb

The YouTube AI Age verification stuff starts tomorrow (they're going to use an AI to scrub what you watch, what you comment, stuff like that, to determine your age) and with all my weird special interests, going from Plants Vs Zombies, Power Rangers, Five Nights At Freddy's, to political stuff, actually good horror content, and VODs of streamers I like, I'm screwed, and I don't have an ID either, even if I wanted them to take my info and sell it

I like the platform because I can just watch whatever and boredom is almost physically painful. I have stuff to watch on other platforms. Been wanting to watch some new movies, watch some anime through questionable means, stuff like that, but still

I know it's a dumb thing to worry about, I'm just kinda stressed about it. Not to say corporations stealing our information isn't a big deal

I understand when you are lonely, this is a lifeline, and outlet, it's not dumb if it matters to you.

I wouldn't overthink it.

Just see how it goes and countinue enjoying what you are watching 💕💜

I'm a big fan of Five nights at Freddy's 😁

I was kinda overthinking it, things don't seem that bad right now, but YouTube's algorithms are notorious for being bad. Just been watching whatever for now

Hope they go back on this. I don't wanna be at risk of being out in AI baby jail for wanting to engage with all my special interests
