I understand why they're doing this; generally it's the "CONSPIRACY THEORISTS!!1" with mental issues who buy completely fictional accounts presented as truth, and that little notice could save them a lot of bother.

They shouldn't be putting it on any of the remotely plausible ones, even if they're completely wrong. Then again, they're already massively abusing their monopoly with the tracking etc., so this isn't actually the worst thing they've done.

The way to solve this is to not put content onto YouTube, and (to a lesser, but not insignificant extent) not to watch content on YouTube.
