Is there a way to watch "age-restricted" videos on youtube?

Bunch of services out there offering Free SMS Numbers for 2FA. You might also try searching "Burner SMS", but anyways, there are options.
Would using these service be a risk if you lose access to such number?
-
You need an account. There is no bypass or workaround at this moment.
you seem confident, but it seems this is not true

burner SMS. Burner dummy Google account strictly for age-restricted content. I don't really see what's to lose?
Also, you can turn off 2FA, so the number is only "needed" if you forget your password and/or lose access to the backup e-mail.

I see, notes.
Wouldn't Google tie the dummy account to your KYC'd account tho?

I mean, finding ways around that is the whole point of Posts like this one?
Personally, I use different browsers for different purposes on a rando Android phone(+vpn for torrents). I watch this community to try to stay abreast of current privacy/security issues, but I don't make much effort to live it, as I'll go dark long before I'll really have anything to hide.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go bitch at the librarians again, for disposing of the microfiche after they digitized it.

My bad. I was wrong.

I don't have a google account
Long ago i was building a front-end for YouTube. Back then it was just a parameter to the video in the embedded iframe. So my front-end was playing all videos without any account or being logged in.
Since the plugin works, I guess it just toggles that parameter too. Not sure why Google doesnt require an actual login but they dont (or didnt).

I use BravePipe on android. No account needed. Also can include Bitchute and Rumble if you desire.

np, I learned this today too. we are truly very lucky to have these alternative services and the guys behind them

Been using that one for years without any problems. Users should be aware though that it uses third party proxies by default that could potentially log which age restricted videos you're watching.
"by default" so there's an option to disable?
-
Isnt this possible with Grayjay, or do you still need an account?
It's possible. You have to tick a setting.

Haha
Cheers!
Late to the conversation but maybe consider https://invidious.io/ or https://piped.video/ - also for an easy to use client there is https://freetubeapp.io/

The script won't work without a proxy, but if privacy is important to you, you can host your own and replace the default proxies with it. Your own proxy would require a verified YouTube account though, so it kind of defeats the purpose if you were trying to avoid creating such an account in the first place.

For one I trust? Never actually used one, sorry. I've used faxburner, for faxing, without issue, but it doesn't look like they offer SMS.
