My Google account is more than 18 years old and I hit an age prompt when I was trying to watch some FPGA video (out of all things). So no, account age is not necessarily a factor.

Field programmable gatorade is an adult-only beverage.
They probably need to account for parents allowing kids to use their account, so account age can be a factor but not an automatic pass.
One result of a US fine was making it clear that adults letting kids use their accounts is still a legal problem: https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2019/09/...
Note that this is adults letting kids use their accounts to view kids content, as the issue was parental approval for ad tracking.
Parents allowing kids to use their account is a problem with any current approach.
That makes sense. Golf has a minimum age of 35.
Did you hear they are letting kids play pickleball these days! How scandalous.
Can't allow any underage synthesis.
Yeah, they could/*should* infer your age just by the fact you're watching an FPGA video
I would have watched those at 10 if the internet was a thing when I was 10. I think most people here would have. (I may or may not have understood it, but I would have tried)
