YouTube Raises Livestream Age Limit to 16 Years
8 days ago
YouTube is raising the age limit for livestreaming to 16 years, effective July 22. Users under 16 will not be able to livestream, and streams with 13-15 year olds without adult supervision may have live chat disabled. This change aims to protect younger users from risks. It may affect gaming streamers, and YouTube is also part of discussions in Australia about social media age restrictions, which could influence this decision.
