    "I'm 10 and I want to be a lowyer like you" LegalEagle: sweat intensifies
  • @GoldenPenHD
    This sounds like doing my taxes. I have to find out how much I owe to the government, and if I get that number wrong I go to jail.
  • @JediMasterBaiter
    Here's why your channel wasn't approved for monetisation: • Content deemed suitable for children
  • @Kay_213_
    The people with authority who think animation automatically means it’s directed towards children have clearly never been on the internet
  • @Wouldyoukindly4545
    Legal Eagle: "Obviously this channel is not child directed" ...Bold of you to assume that.
  • @prim16
    Can we all just take a moment to thank LegalEagle for making a full-length video explaining this? 49 minutes is a pain in the butt to watch, but it's sure of a lot better than reading the entire COPPA document, interpreting it like a lawyer, and gathering real-world context to draw inferences.
  • @jacquelinemackie4395
    Children can lie about their age and anyone can lie about the following; "I have read and accepted the terms of conditions"...
  • @MrCptjsparrow
    Objection: Careful Legal Eagle. My 19 month old was in the room while watching this video and kept yelling “Ironman!” This could be considered child-directed due to your vague likeness to Tony Stark lol
  • @LexieAssassin
    So, lemme get this straight... > Channel run by an actual lawyer > Rando: Files bogus copyright claim against channel Sounds like the legal equivalent of stepping out in front of a bus or something.
  • @ojtheaviator1795
    When I was around 12, I remember watching educational content on YouTube. Think stuff in the style of Cody's Lab or Nile Red. If all this applied back then, I doubt that would have happened. Imagine if all libraries had a system in place that kept kids inside the children section, and didn't allow them to use library cards. No kid could check out a book, and no kid would be able to look up a fact in a book from the "adult" section of the library if curious about something. Now, also assume that adults cannot check out kids books, even if they have a library card. No kid could bring a kids book home, regardless of adult endorsement. This is effectively what YouTube is doing. YouTube is such a diverse platform. Lumping the educational channels in with "Peppa Pig" and "Call of Duty" disregards the intelligence of many children, and keeps them from accessing content that allows them to grow in their knowledge.
  • @onyx8231
    I'm tired if always having to "Think of the children." That's what parents are for. If children are lying about their age, it's the parent's fault.
  • @cosmicmelon9305
    "Johnny Johnny" "Yes COPPA?" "Advertising towards children?" "No COPPA." "Telling lies?" " NO COPPA!" "Open your account!" LEWD LAWSUIT NOISES
  • @iKiwed
    YouTube: You're going to pay for COPPA. LegalEagle: No that's wrong! --- BREAK ---
  • @jungwolf
    “Meet all of the other factors but the content is sooo adult it counteracts all the rest.” Porn, he’s talking about porn.
  • @jaketurner8109
    So how do I use this information to stop seeing ads for Raid: Shadow Legends
  • @tranquilXshorts
    Youtube: Online Creators are on their own when it comes to navigating COPPA LegalEagle: Hold my reasonable affordable tailored suit.
  • @HiddenAgendas777
    Unintended consequence: a Minecraft creator, leaves, a Sky Rim creator stays. This repeats. An animation that is gross, sexual or violent - not aimed at kids. Animation that is cute and wholesome - at risk for being aimed at kids. Result: Youtube becomes less wholesome and kids still come here.
  • @shannonolivas9524
    This makes me worry that channels with "family friendly" language will start swearing like sailors to avoid that "directed at children" qualifier.
