Ok, parents, your teen comes to you in tears that #YouTube won't let them upload videos anymore until they let it run a facial scan to guesstimate their age, and they do not have a phone that will let them do this (because you is a bad parent that gave them a brick), so plez plez let them log in on your phone to do this? What do you do?
(I said "no" ... prompting more tears... and then YT let them upload anyway. 🤷♂️️ )
