YouTube just keeps getting more and more aggressive with this. They _really_ don't want people to circumvent the age-gates. I don't get it. Why are they breaking youtube-dl over and over like this? This isn't a legal or reputation liability for them. People going out of their way to circumvent their measures isn't their responsibility. It's like they don't want people to even see these videos, but then why do they allow them on the site? It doesn't make any sense, and the only way I can make it make sense in my mind is they want to track people who watch age-gated content as like a type of honeypot.
EXPLAIN THIS BECAUSE IM GOING SCHIZO OVER IT.
