firstly I have no idea where posts about laws and such are supposed to be so I'm posting it here, if anyone knows where's actually meant to be then can you move it there?
now to the matter at hand, we've all been seeing the articles and the videos about Youtube's changes and the FTC fining people $42k, doom and gloom etc etc etc

while I'm not a lawyer or such after reading this several times I can't find anything that necessitates content creators label there content as made for kids or not or be held liable or anything really. The law simply states that operators of websites or third party's that collect information on users have to seek parental permission and comply with the law and last I checked YouTubers do not collect or store any information nor are they operators.... so what the hell are the FTC supposed to do here? take YouTubers to court for not breaking any law?
if anyone here is a legal expert I'd like to know if I'm reading this correctly
