|
|
I haven't posted here in a long time but I ran into a problem tonight and thought that this would be the best place to ask my question.
Has anyone run into having to verify your age when wanting to view a YouTube video? I guess I could understand if it was a porn type video but Rocky/Eye of the Tiger??  |

PR0n xxxplains it? Or, maybe g0Ogle? Who knows? Theyre in the midst of a changeover regarding payment options, from what I know. Create an acct maybe? If not, P1rat3bay still works fine enuff!
This one works fine...

It has probably been classified like that due to violent content. |

I log in with my g-mail. I do not know how that verifies my age, nor the relationship ( if any ) between Youtube and Google but it works. |

google owns youtube, this thread had some advice:
http://forums.eslcafe.com/korea/viewtopic.php?t=235757
The Korean observer (or herald - the one that has the Korean writing stories in English) covered this issue and found the information needed to get around this was only providable by Koreans and not foreigners. |

Yeah - what gives with that? I wanted to watch an old clip on YouTube of the Buster Douglas Mike Tyson fight and couldn't due to the age verification requirement in Korea!?! ... I saw it live on national TV in 1990 ...
Finally managed to find one that wasn't censored. |

It's not Google's fault, it's the Korean government that demands the silly age verification. Use a VPN. Problem solved. |

This.
It has nothing to do with google or your YouTube account. |

Not such a bad idea as long as you're NOT at work, hence the "nsfw" thing. The middle and high school boys, and maybe even the girls, may like all the TnA, but it might also get a teacher fired. |
