People that are excited by this are being way too naive here.

This is clearly not a good-faith effort for Google to have you stop wasting time. Youtube has been around for over a decade and they're just getting to this now? I think this is clearly a minimum amount of effort to prevent backlash, and it is against their interests to invest in technology that helps you use their technology responsibly.

I have never seen a PR campaign so blatantly obvious and contrived. Can't you smell the stench coming off it?
