Yes, I should have added and verified your age . But none of that is a youtube-dl matter, there is no magic video download link hidden in the page source.
Of course this is a youtube-dl matter. It could easily circumvent this by pretending to embed the video.
ID is out of the question, credit card seems more plausible. However, i wonder what happens when you give the number. I don't want that it sticks after validation...
Title seems misleading, it can download it as long as you provide logged in account info. I think the correct title is: youtube-dl can no longer be used to bypass youtube's age verification checks
... assuming that you have provided YouTube with a scan of your ID card to prove that you are 18+ ...

Login alone does not help for age restricted videos. First step towards automatically stop using youtube. It their choice really.
You believe an appreciable number of people will stop using Youtube over this?

A few days ago, I clicked an age restricted video on Youtube and usually I just state that I am above 18 but now they ask for a credit card number or an identity card to prove it. I am not going to send this just to watch some random video clip that users have declared not appropriate to a young audience because it features a zombie. Seriously!
I remember http://nsfwyoutube.com/ hasn't been working for sometime. Maybe it is related. Is there still a way to anonymously watch restricted videos on youtube? I don't want to login to google to watch videos.
I noticed this yesterday and now I am wondering what to do. Especially when more and more videos are getting flagged. ID is out of the question, credit card seems more plausible. However, i wonder what happens when you give the number. I don't want that it sticks after validation...
