Accounts used by multiple people enter the room.
By kids often use my account on our shared family TV. We have adults in 30s/40s, early teens, and toddlers all using YouTube for different things.
This is a stupid idea.
I don't think big corp wants you account sharing. "Violates ToS" they say.
I don’t want ScreamingMinecraftYoutuber67 on my watch history, and yet, it’ll be there tomorrow morning.

I don't want account sharing either, except theres things like Google homes where you can't sign in with more than one account. People sharing the same account in a TV aren't trying to, it's just the natural way they use it.
