Regardless of the date of birth listed on the account, this feature is being introduced from August 13 and will initially be tested on limited users in the United States. The company says that the aim of this initiative is to provide users with age-appropriate and safe content. After successful results, it will be implemented worldwide. This advanced technology will estimate the age of the user by taking into account the user’s video search history, types of content watched, and the length of time the account has been active. If a user is declared underage, he will automatically face age-appropriate restrictions. Interestingly, if the system cannot accurately estimate the age, the user will be able to provide proof of his age through **government ID card** or **credit card**. With this feature, YouTube aims to protect minor users from inappropriate content and provide more peace of mind to parents.
