YouTube disables comments on videos with children

YouTube declares that already in tens of millions of videos has blocked the ability to add comments. And this is just the beginning. The action continues and is expected to expand more and more. The material under which the juveniles appear and which may be the subject of an unhealthy interest in pedophiles is under the microscope.

A smiling little girl shows what she's doing each morning. He guides the viewer around his room, shows the mirror in which he looks, the wardrobe from which he pulls out his clothes, the hairbrush he is combing, the bed on which he sleeps. This is one of the dozen or so films published by her and theoretically there is nothing special about him ... and yet.

All others have a few hundred, maybe a thousand visits, this one has several hundred thousand. The secret of his spectacular success is dispelled by comments. It's enough to look at it, and the word success will suddenly get a very bitter aftertaste. These at the top are full of time markings. These are the shots in which the girl's short dress tilts up, or when the child bends down and you see a piece of his panties, or when he bends in a way that an adult woman could be considered erotic.

Other comments praise her for being so cute and pretty, urging her to make such films more often, while others openly open erotic texts directed to other readers.

Some of these videos are placed on profiles specifically created for collecting and republishing them.

How does YouTube fight pedophilia?

Selected creators will be able to keep comments. Although YouTube does not reveal exactly how the selection will be made, one condition is crucial - active moderation of comments on its own and cooperation with Google in this respect.

On the blog for creators, the YouTube team also declares that it will sharpen the algorithm that searches the website for suspicious entries, so that it will be able to respond faster and remove more of them.

This is not a problem that appeared yesterday or a week ago. However, it has only recently been publicized enough to reach advertisers' ears . And you were not happy that their precious products appear on your favorite playlists pedophiles and did what once worked - stopped the flow of money. They withdrew their advertisements, inter alia Disney, Epic Games and Nestle. So YouTube worked. For now, cutting out comments.
