A subreddit dedicated to videos that are marked as "for kids" on Youtube.

Rules:

This is a subreddit about all things getting marked as "for kids" on Youtube. It isn't meant for hating on COPPA laws in general. If it's a video that got marked as "for kids" on Youtube, it belongs here. If it WASN'T marked for kids by Youtube, it doesn't belong here. Note that the channel disabling comments or displaying kids' ads doesn't necessarily mean it was strucken by coppa.
You can talk about your own bad COPPA experiences, but no self-promotion. Talking about how your favorite channels and your channel have been affected by the COPPA restrictions marking things as "for kids" is fine, doing things such as linking to your videos and telling everyone to check them out because COPPA is keeping people from seeing them is not fine. If you're not active on the sub in other ways, and/or you have a long history of posting your videos across tons of subs, don't expect it to stay. Please also be clear about your affiliation with the channel.
Be civil. Any bigotry/hatred here can result in a perma-ban, even on a first offense.
Do not advocate violence against Youtube, the FTC, or anyone else involved. The COPPA restrictions may be frustrating, but do NOT advocate violence.
If there is a banned subject, do not post videos on it. Certain types of videos get posted a lot, to the point where it overwhelms the sub and other users get annoyed. If there is a large, sweeping demand to ban certain videos, those videos may be banned and any posts about them will be removed. Currently, we have a ban on Spacetoon, Numberblocks, and iPad Manibusan/mashup videos.
Post titles should contain at least some effort. Post titles such as "noooooooo", "X got coppa'd", "fuck coppa for doing this!", or puns on things INCLUDING BUT NOT EXCLUSIVE TO Cocomelon or Baby Shark don't do anything to tell us what the video is or why we should care about it being coppa'd. When in doubt, if the post title is only one or two words, it breaks this rule. Additionally, post titles that are "talking" to COPPA such as "coppa, I hate you" or "coppa, you're grounded" are banned. This rule was put into place due to popular demand.
If you have a problem, take it to modmail. Complaints outside of modmail will be removed and likely ignored as well.
This subreddit allows ALL videos marked for kids. It's not just kid-inappropriate videos allowed here - the subreddit that only allows kid-inappropriate videos would be r/fuckytcoppa. If someone posts a kid-appropriate video here, do not bombard them with "but it's a kids' video!" or anything similar.
Puns are an instant permaban. When a person makes CocoMelon or Baby Shark puns in post titles or comments, it's never just one, it's constant. As such, in order to weed out that spam of it, any -melon posts or comments (or coco- posts or comments) will result in the user being instantly permabanned without warning.
This is not a place to judge whether a channel should be terminated. Posts should not include statements like "why is this video up?" or "this channel should be terminated". This is a place for logging videos that were marked for kids by coppa and nothing else.
Do not post more than one video per channel per week. This subreddit moves slow. As such, posting from the same channel over and over again unintentionally comes across as spamming the subreddit.
