If you don't get the difference between a dedicated adult site, with adult content, and a general public platform I see why you don't see the point.


That's why there is Youtube Kids [1]. See, the content is separated. Kids shouldn't be on youtube.

YouTube Kids is mostly safe, but there's a small chance kids could see nudity, violence, or just weird stuff, as well as ads for stuff like junk food. Our study found that 27% of videos watched by kids 8 and under are intended for older target audiences, with violence being the most likely negative content type. . . . On the plus side for parents, YouTube offers fair warning that kids may see something that you don't want them to see and you can block and report inappropriate videos.

YouTube Kids is not safe for kids. Am a parent, stopped allowing that long ago.
