Does this mean that I will no longer be able to monetize my videos? I see you say that it's about intended audience and that we "know our videos best," but if there's an algorithm auto-flagging videos, how is it supposed to know my intent if it thinks all animation is for kids?

I've seen that apparently people who do not flag their videos as directed at children but are auto-flagged by the algorithm will be subject to consequence and possibly legal trouble. Is that going to happen to me if I don't flag my videos (for EVERYONE) as directed at children?

One of the most fulfilling parts of being a YouTube creator for me is engaging with my audience through comments. Am I going to lose that? And will my audience no longer be notified when I upload new videos? What is going to happen to my channel?
