I am having this problem as well. YouTube is unlimited and my kiddo isn't doing her homework. I have tried setting the parent control to not allow, as well as entering common domains. Her school computer is able to get around it. Please help, it is leading to so many problems for her-- she can't resist YouTube's algorithm. The parent control Circle ap setting is NOT working properly. How can I block YouTube all together while giving her access to other sites she needs for school?

have you tried setting a custom filter? Go in, and block the entire youtube domain.
Go to filter, click custom filter at the bottom and enter youtube.com

Yes, I have tried blocking various related YouTube domains using the custom filter including the following:
youtube.com
youtube-nocookie.com
googlevideo.com
ytimg.com
googleapis.com
subdomains.youtube.com
m.youtube.com
i.google.com
s.ytimg.com
youtubei.googlepis.com
I have not be able to find a good comprehensive list of all the YouTube domains, but I go on my kiddo's school computer and am still able to access videos easily despite these settings.
