Re: YouTube and Age-restricted Content?

pgn · ‎24-10-2020

So who thinks this short clip, shared here months ago (uploaded to YouTube in June-2020 to make sharing it here possible), merits the response from YouTube shown appended below the video?

And the e-mail I received about it today:

I have appealed - I'd love to see the logic behind YouTube's restriction... and I thought the alliteration in my title was simply wonderful, if that's the reason it got flagged!

I got exactly the same email yesterday for a 10 second video that I had uploaded in April 2017

It was my injured leg after the motor cycle accident which I won't post here

Guess the youtube police are working overtime....

It looks as if YouTube have caught themselves on - I received this at about 17:30 today, in response to my appealing the decision they made earlier to restrict access to those over 18:

I guess all's well that ends well...

Good news @pgn

I`m sending You Tube Team [who put age restriction on your vid] to the Naughty Step...

Some people see things as they are and ask "Why?"; I dream of things that never were and ask "Why not?"

Mind you, it appears they simply read the title without actually looking at the video

Hmm. I could've named it "Paws Forward - Four Big Cats Pad In Synch", doesn't quite trip off the tongue the same way as the original, though, @Cleoriff

Idiots.
