Complicit is the word theyre searching for. Accomplices would also suffice. Co-conspirator might be giving them a bit more agency than they deserve, though.

The way restricted mode works is by effectively shadowbanning any content that isnt for kids
You wouldn't notice it unless you go side by side on an account with restricted mode and look at the list of videos on a channel to directly compare what shows up on vs what is unavailable on the restricted account.
A creator like linus who exclusively makes content "for the algorithm" would know if it was just an update to the blackbox. He is also deliberately ignorant of politics and the world around him so it would be significantly LESS surprising if he didnt know about restricted mode or that it would affect his "non-political" content.
The political youtubers I've seen have made posts about entire playlists being unavailable on restricted accounts. Its actually a pretty big deal, honestly.
