I don't really download anything edgy and don't know how to easily find an age-gated video. If you provide a link though, I'll check.

Thanks. Oh not even edgy (well, not too edgy). Something like this Rammstein music video:

I can't even tell why this one specifically is age-gated, but something as explicit as their Deutschland video isn't. I guess there must be a boob in this one somewhere.

Yes, it's age-gated for me and downloads fine:

Interesting (and useful). Yt-dlp seems to be quite on top it.

[zinekeller]

Does this work inside EU? AFAIK that's where the workarounds were being killed (due to AVMSD)

[Freak_NL]

I just gave it a go (now that it's evening and I'm at my own computer), and it works from the Netherlands.

Surprisingly, because just about all the other methods and proxy-sites mentioned in various click-baity articles a search yields have stopped working.

[zinekeller]

That's amusing, I wonder what bypass yt-dlp is using.

No boob, but male buttocks and sniffing coca^W golden dust.

Edit: ah, bath scene at 02:40. There are like 4 pixels what could be interpreted as an areola.
