    Yeah, because “naughty” language is SO harmful to anyone under 18 and can’t be freely found fucking everywhere that’s not patrolled by conservative nincompoops 🙄

      Well, I’d say “you get a warning and need to click past it once” is probably the right set of guardrails there, which is to say “as robust as a little bit of tape”.

      The real disincentives on Google services are downstream, where that impacts your placement to receive ads and monetize. I don’t know how much The Onion cares about that, I’m guessing Youtube ads aren’t a massive slice of their revenue pie, but for everybody else it’s a significant carrot and stick thing to keep access to that sweet, sweet midroll ad money.

          Sorry, I may be too old to know this off the top of my head. They won’t let you watch a “not for kids” embed unless you’re logged in? Or is that for a separate “sensitive content” flag?

            I think it’s separate, assigned automatically by scanning the subtitles and imagery, probably.
