  Indeed, it is aggressively hostile. I thought setting up an allowlist of subscribed channels would be a simple ask. That plus an adblocker and job done, right? No, Google’s algorithm is what you get–despite your subscriptions you will get plenty of other things and they will push your kid towards some inappropriate things.

  What I do instead is block YouTube on my kid’s devices and download selected videos to host on Jellyfin. It’s a bit of a pain and not legal, but much better than trying to monitor YouTube use.

  I don’t really understand your point here. I have to micromanage my kid’s media consumption because on YouTube it’s Google’s algorithm and my kid is not their customer.

  Don’t download garbage torrents. Get to a good (usually private) tracker and note release groups.

  I don’t follow your reasoning on large losses when buying options, even naked ones. When you own an option you have a right but not an obligation. Do you mean selling options?
