But the censorship is global. I see it in France, even if there is no legal reason for it. I've seen plenty of male dicks or female breast on old french movies as a kid, it was not considered immoral.

Also I don't recall my TV requesting my credit card to watch content as a kid.

The EU is where the legal requirement is.

YouTube isn't asking for this in other territories.
