For those with YouTube channels, be aware of changes coming up soon.
I still don't understand it and have been following it for a few days now.
If you want more information, here is the announcement from YouTube https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9383587?hl=en
You will see a new option when uploading videos to identify if the video is made for kids. I am still confused by this, especially in relation to Christmas lights - no my video is not made for kids, but it is.... But it can also be viewed by kids.
But be aware,
Happy to discuss further and get additional information if anyone is interested.
YouTube formally announced its plan to have creators label any videos of theirs that may appeal to children. Starting in January 2020, if creators mark a video as directed at kids, data collection will be blocked for all viewers, resulting in lower ad revenue, and those videos will lose some of the platform’s most popular features, including comments and end screens.

But be aware,
YouTube will use machine learning and flagging algorithms to locate child-directed videos that may have been mislabeled. Creators won’t be able to appeal those decisions, though a YouTube spokesperson said the company will be listening to feedback. If the algorithms aren’t effective, YouTube could stop using them entirely and face no threat from the FTC for doing so, leaving creators solely accountable and open to potentially life-altering fines from the government. ticking the wrong option may result in a fine.
