Yeah retard! This will hurt vtubers!

>>103412866 (OP)
vtubers?

>>103412866 (OP)
I stopped using Youtube a week ago and created a new email in preparation. Just need to learn how to watch streams on VLC and i'll be set.

I can't believe this shit is becoming the norm, I mean VPN makes most of it worthless anyway but it's such a pain in the ass.

>>103412866 (OP)
My youtube account itself is more than 18 years old. I'm good.

>>103412866 (OP)
In a few hours time I use odysee forever and only support my oshi through merch sales

>>103413103
They will make non verified accounts only able to see the advertiser friendliest of content.

>>103413103
will a VPN make it worthless? You still have to verify even if you're in another country.

Me? I got my ID all lined up

If your youtube history is nothing but watching cartoon women play video games for children, then you're probably getting your account flagged as underaged.

>>103413168
Think they care? It was never about the children. It's about linking your viewing habits to who you are. Good luck with all your co-workers knowing you watch Fuwamoco.

>>103413168
Same, my google account is from 2006 and it's probably older than half of the posters on this board. Also I'm not in the US

>credit card
So people who send superchats/members will be unaffected

>>103413343
Kids can have credit cards too, there is no age limit on those as long as a parent co-signs one.

>>103412866 (OP)
Really? All you need is a credit card to validate your age? Is everyone freaking out actually underage or a poorfag?
>inb4 muh debt trap
just spend less money than you have and pay it off every month retard

>>103413426
>Really? All you need is a credit card to validate your age?
*A credit card with your real name, address, face, basically everything someone would need to do a background check on you
A video site shouldnt' be asking me for my fucking ID, full stop

>>103413412
Well I guess that's good enough for Google, considering they give that option.

suddenly my plan of having a separate youtube account just for vtuber stuff (few yrs old, no linked CCs, etc) might be backfiring lol

>>103413426
KYS

>>103413549
Credit cards do not carry your address or face. Only your name.

>>103413253
So? If my coworkers have a problem with it, they can kick rocks.

>>103413253
Avg fuwamoco watcher is between 35 and 55.

>>103413628
Correct about the face, but at least here, credit cards are tied to a billing address, which is required to be entered as well. Without it, the payment would bounce.

>>103413103
They want to destroy anonymity on the internet especially for social media but at least for vtubers it will make little difference.

>>103413426
Anon the credit card means that both YouTube and your government knows exactly who is using that account.

Proving again /vt/ is the lowest IQ board if they can't see this isn't about your fucking age, it's about training their AI on your face and your watching habits.

>>103413628
They carry something much more damning: Your financial history which they now have. Which has your address and face attached to every transaction you do with it as per the Patriot act.

>>103413674
Not the case here in the US. I use my credit card to pay for my prepaid phone bill, but they do not have (nor have ever asked me for) my address. Only my name, card number, expiration date, cvv.

>>103413686
It's not quite like that. The content creator also has to take a picture of his face or show the id...

>>103413771
I'm also in the US and I swear every instance of using my credit card asks for a billing address, and I had it bounce once cause I accidentally used my old address after having moved and updated it.

>>103413771
As per the Patriot Act: They have to have your address.
https://www.merchantsbank.com/usa-patriot-act
>Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT ACT requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account or changes an existing account. This federal requirement applies to all new customers and current customers. This information is used to assist the United States government in the fight against the funding of terrorism and money-laundering activities.
Thank Bush.

I think they only ask once for a google account. If you make another one, they'll ask you again.

>>103413802
(me) I should specify this is for online purchases. Obviously this is not needed when shopping at a brick and mortar store, just like the other things are not required.

>>103413695
I don't care anymore. It's not like anyone gives enough of a shit to stop it.

>>103413830
The financial institution (bank/credit card company) has that information, yes.
The business you're doing your transaction with (in my example, my phone carrier) does not need to have that information for the transaction to be approved.

>>103413103
you can just not use the mainstream internet anymore. too many normies online now anyways

>>>/g/

Open google/duckduckgo/whatever, type "serbian driver licence"or something in that manner, scroll a bit, find some ID, crop it and send it as your verification. Worked perfectly for me few years ago when they implemented this shit in my country. YT doesn't have your photos, nor your name so they can't verify if that 58 old Bosnian fat fuck is really the CunnyLicker88

only a matter of time until orange man enforces ID checks on every site, including this one

>>103412866 (OP)
FWMC fanbase in shambles after this

If you just wore a mask that is just some dude's face (one of those president Halloween masks maybe), is the face scan infrared aka 3D based or image recognition? If it is measuring your face size/proportions and not actually looking at it then maybe that could work.

>>103413003
>/vt/ - virtual youtubers
yes?

>>103414262
Ruffians are actually the most ojisan core base in EN I think, by a lot at that.

>>103414262
The average ruffian is like 35 years old

Children don't drop akas like confetti

I think ultimately this might be a good thing, it'll hopefully result in the modern internet crumbling and returning to a state of greed-free quirky optimism like it was in the early to mid 00s and before. Every facet of the internet (and tech in general) has gotten utterly shit to use. Search engines are useless, because they include results to similar questions, AI slop is forced everywhere and these shit companies are trying to force you to watch advertisements at every chance they can get.
>>103414120
I've seen clips where it asks you to humiliate yourself by opening your mouth and doing all sorts of shit, we're basically living in the dorito dew the dew copypasta future.

blame 9/11 and Bush for this, burgers

>>103413893
It usually validates as long as the ZIP code is correct

>>103414120
>YT doesn't have your photos, nor your name so they can't verify

yeah that's the whole point of this. they want every username to have a full name, photo, phone number, and home address attached to it.

The downward slide started with Reagan.

>>103414610
They shouldn't be giving the selfie option then.

>>103414556
So be it... Xbox is already going to implement this next year. Spotify already has it. Soon Steam, Nintendo Switch and PlayStation will do the same. The normies will only notice when they want to watch their favorite reality show or sport and are asked for their id... Welcome to 1984.

My favorite one is the guy tricking the AI using garry's mod

I can't imagine the number of people who are just tuning the internet out in general because Starmer is being a retarded idiot

>same retard company that can't even get rid of bot accounts think they can infer with accounts are from underage users through ""signals""

only a matter of time before the great mass doxxing happens

so if you've ever bought memberships or supas it won't come up?

The UK and Australia were the first. In a few hours, the USA. And the European Union next year. The only solution is for you to protest before it's too late. It was just pornography, they say...

I'm expecting some good industrious men from india, or upstanding fellows from muscovy to end up embarking on a giga-phishing campaign. Imagine normalising the idea of showing your important documents online to prove your identity, the tech illiterate are going to get fucking wrecked as a result of this.

>>103414944
Doesn't even have to be a hacker, just a disgruntled Google employee

>>103415038
When that happens, I don't even want to imagine the mass suicides. "Look, my coworker's nerd likes to watch a married woman pretending to be an anime girl! Ahahah..."

>>103413241
Just watch videos only boomers watch to trick the AI, like lawn mower reviews and ammunition reloading tutorials
