YouTube has been taken hostage by Australia’s new social media age restriction laws.
To pacify the government, Alphabet Inc released YouTube ‘Nanny’ on an unsuspecting public. The overprotective algorithm has bedtime reminders so you don’t forget to sleep.
If you refuse to hand over identification documents, you will be treated like a fool. The app abruptly pops up, to remind you to go to sleep, in case you may have forgotten.
But why stop there?
How about a warm mug of Milo and a Bickie? “Supercalifragilisticexpiali – please get off now.”
For those experiencing the same demeaning Mary Pop-ups, dive into the settings menu and look for the heading “break reminders” –
Give the nanny the flick.
