I understand that these videos were made public, but still this kinda feels like violating people’s privacy. They most likely never intended for us all to watch their personal videos a decade later.

If you upload a video and set it to public, you're responsible for that. End of story.

It is not the responsibility of others to guess your intentions.

That's the issue. These people likely didn't affirmatively do that.

IIRC at least for a while it defaulted to unlisted and then at some point YouTube changed all unlisted videos to private which removed a lot of videos from view where the original uploader was no longer around to set the video to public.
