We are inundated with garbage from all directions. I mostly go to YouTube for music so I don't notice much in the way of restricted viewing.<br /><br />Arlee Bird<br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a><br />Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918688759465977896.post-55400267655251249392022-05-01T15:16:42.193+01:002022-05-01T15:16:42.193+01:00I can understand why you're frustrated about t...I can understand why you're frustrated about the content rules, particularly as they already have "Youtube Kids" designed specifically for children. I get why Youtube feel it necessary to cover their backs when there is so much inappropriate content that kids can stumble on without having to be logged in. But, ultimately I think it's down to the parents to supervise their kids and set up controls on the account. My daughter's account is linked to mine so I can block anything I don't want her to see.

I don't have children. I was assaulted and exploited as one. And I worked around ill children who were doing homeschool, and they frequently were on YouTube. Trying to keep sexual predators away from people under age 18 is a difficult task, especially in the online environment. <br />Should parenting "take a village"? Are all adults responsible to keep children away from adult content? Or are we to expect all parents to have the time, skill, care and values to protect all children? Is there a better way to prevent child exploitation and molestation? These are good and vital questions.<br />Perhaps, instead of a ban and deleting, YouTube could buy RedTube and just move adult stuff there? (That site once had music videos from death metal bands. It became more focused on free porn later. I haven't been there since then. But there was a cool band from Sweden I once followed before that site went into a darker direction.)<br />I don't know. <br /><br />J Lenni Dorner (he/him 👨🏽 or 🧑🏽 they/them) ~ Co-host of the #AtoZchallenge, OperationAwesome6 Debut Author Interviewer, Reference& Speculative Fiction AuthorJ Lenni Dornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961335286982498158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918688759465977896.post-71154269204048663442022-04-29T14:12:55.260+01:002022-04-29T14:12:55.260+01:00I just mark all my stuff as not meant for kids -- ...I just mark all my stuff as not meant for kids -- because who knows when someone will take offence about faeries frolicking... or me trying to breathe between paragraphs when recording while ill.<br /><br />Ronel visiting for the A-Z Challenge <a href="https://www.ronelthemythmaker.com/my-languishing-tbr-x-atozchallenge2022-books/" rel="nofollow">My Languishing TBR: X</a>Ronel Janse van Vuurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04041347187777879494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8918688759465977896.post-16435246895954003622022-04-28T15:00:43.363+01:002022-04-28T15:00:43.363+01:00It can be frustrating.

Some parents don't watch what their children are doing online and it's probably those parents that would cause a problem if their child clicked on a youtube video they shouldn't be watching.
