There are several methods available. If you are not on YouTube, you can visit a proxy site or a FreeTube alternative. However, these methods are not always 100% effective. If you want to get around the age restriction on YouTube, you have to know more about the method you choose. In this article, we&#8217;ll provide you with some tips that might help you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FreeTube\"><\/span>FreeTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to watch YouTube videos without being tracked by the website, you can download a free app called FreeTube. With this free video search engine, you can watch the videos without being restricted by age. You can also download age-restricted YouTube videos using a URL link, which contains a watch?v or embed\/ tag. To use FreeTube, first sign in to YouTube. Next, click on your profile picture to open the account menu. Click on the settings tab.<\/p>\n<p>To bypass the age restriction, you need to have an account that is over 18. You can do this by using a US-VPN. If you are under 18, you won&#8217;t be able to sign up for an account because you won&#8217;t be allowed to use it. Fortunately, there are still a number of free applications that allow you to bypass YouTube age restrictions. FreeTube is one of the easiest ways to bypass this age restriction. It&#8217;s easy to download and uses no ads, so you can browse the web without having to worry about your children watching inappropriate videos.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"NewPipe\"><\/span>NewPipe<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To play age-restricted YouTube videos, you need to install the NewPipe application on your Android device. To install it, visit the NewPipe GitHub page. Once the app is installed, you can use it to search for and open age-restricted content on YouTube. You can also use it to download videos from other sites. After you have installed the application, you can go to Settings and toggle the Show age-restricted content option. Once you&#8217;ve done this, you can start playing.<\/p>\n<p>To install this application, you need to download an apk file from NewPipe&#8217;s github. This apk file can be found in your Downloads folder on your Android device. Once you have downloaded it, open it and install it. To install it, go to your Android device&#8217;s settings. Then, tap on Manage Apps. Select My Files. Next, tap on Unknown Sources. You must enable this option and read the warning that appears before installing.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_a_proxy_site\"><\/span>Using a proxy site<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several ways to get around the YouTube age restriction. One way is to add letters to the URL. For example, if you want to watch a clip containing mature themes, you can add a prefix such as &#8216;PWN&#8217; to the URL after &#8216;www&#8217; and before &#8216;youtube.&#8217; After that, you simply need to hit the &#8216;Enter&#8217; button to see the video.<\/p>\n<p>Another way to bypass YouTube age restrictions is to use a proxy website. While this option is more convenient, it also has less security. You&#8217;re putting yourself at risk. There are many proxy sites available, so choose one that best suits your needs. The steps below will show you how to use a proxy site to bypass YouTube&#8217;s age restrictions. Just follow the steps to find a website that&#8217;s right for you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Turning_off_restricted_mode_on_YouTube\"><\/span>Turning off restricted mode on YouTube<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several ways to get around YouTube&#8217;s age restriction. You can first try disabling the restriction on your browser. This option can be found in the profile icon on the top-right corner of the page. From there, you can tap the &#8220;General&#8221; tab and toggle the &#8220;Restricted Mode&#8221; option to off. This trick works on both Android and iOS devices. However, you must be using the right browser in order to enable the option.<\/p>\n<p>The next step in bypassing the YouTube age restriction is to sign into your account. Make sure you&#8217;re signed in and that you are using the correct browser. You can also lock Safe Mode to prevent other people from disabling it. Afterward, you&#8217;ll have to log into your YouTube account to turn off restricted mode. In the browser version, click on the &#8220;Profile&#8221; icon in the upper-right corner.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_a_proxy_site_to_bypass_YouTubes_age_restriction\"><\/span>Using a proxy site to bypass YouTube&#8217;s age restriction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are several ways to bypass YouTube&#8217;s age restriction, but one of the most convenient and safest is by using a proxy site. Although these sites are not secure, they do provide a means to watch age-restricted videos on YouTube without having to create a Google account. Proxy sites are available for free and easy to use. Simply paste the YouTube URL into the address bar and click Go. You can also use an extension for your browser called YouTube Unblocker.<\/p>\n<p>Another method to bypass YouTube&#8217;s age restriction is to change the URL that you type into the browser. To access a video without being blocked, you need to add &#8216;PWN&#8217; to the URL. In the address bar, this will appear after &#8216;www&#8217; and before &#8216;youtube&#8217;. Then, simply hit the &#8216;Enter&#8217; key to start watching the video.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tqRmlD8V5Co\" width=\"364\" height=\"203\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Get Around the YouTube Age Restriction If you are under 18, then you may be wondering how to get around the YouTube age restriction.
