How does one illegally collect information about a child? Easy, you simply collect information about a child et voila, you have done so illegally. Ignorance, as they say, is not a defence.

In this specific case I believe YouTube knew but was hiding behind their terms of service, or trying to. You can argue the toss about whether YouTube is responsible for under 13s accessing the platform or not. But they did know and they allowed it to happen
