Comment on YouTube’s Deliberate Indifference Exposes Kids to disgusting Content

Stop begging for censorship. That never ends up good. Accurate tagging of media is what we need and a way to filter that ourselves.

It’s not really begging for censorship, it’s begging for healthier consumption.
The issue is entirely one of parenting IMO. I’ve seen what’s on YouTube kids and my kids aren’t allowed to watch anything on YouTube without my supervision.
Gross sexual stuff, violence, and cruelty is being pushed to your children as fun with flashy colors and silly sounds. Go watch YouTube kids for a while, click on the random kids channels not the corporate ones.
We’re not talking about sex education and more mature topics, these shoes are promoting sexual violence, violence, bullying, and it’s all being pushed in a fun way.
It’s a parenting problem, and the parents need to be educated on it. They don’t see the problem, kids have their own phones, and Google doesn’t give a fuck they will push the must engaging most addicting most disturbing content to your kids to keep them watching.

Hmm. I never watch Youtube Kids, but regular Youtube is one of my primary entertainment sources. All I get if I keep scrolling are people making food, game play throughs, science channels, animation, AMVs. The worst thing I see are music videos no worse than MTV had… Maybe you should just ban them from YouTube Kids… My biggest complaint is that I have to manually click on subscriptions to see the things I subscribed to. I pay for premium, so maybe that makes a difference?
