YouTube Vows To Purge Disturbing Content For Children
More than one year ago, YouTube had pledged that they were going to crackdown on the many disturbing videos that have been found on their platform that are targeted toward children.
From new age restrictions to removing hundreds of questionable videos, they have been trying to clean up a problem that many have brought to their attention over the years. That problem is a growing issue with the number of disturbing videos aimed at children that can be found on the site.
These videos provide dark and disturbing children's content that many children are consuming without the appropriate parental oversight.
You can find videos containing scenes of torture, to cannibalism, or masturbation etc. Many of the videos also make use of popular entertainment characters to do it; making it more difficult for a child to distinguish the quality of the source.
Mental health experts have warned that these often fear-inducing videos have the potential to greatly impact and damage the development of a child.
After looking at more than 133k videos online, researchers identified at least 8.6 percent to be inappropriate.
Health experts have urged parents to use caution when allowing their young children to access these devices. Some have even suggested that you keep your young children away from YouTube altogether.
Researchers concluded that there likely wouldn't be an organic end to this problem that they see as being fueled by a mixture of the algorithmic content creation and the monetization opportunities.

Hurray!
Does this mean that ThemTube is going to move all of Dizney's content to age-restritcted mode?
Dizney is the leader in traumatizing and hypersexualizing children
I'll believe it when I see it. There is so much trash on there pushing the transgender garbage on children who do not have any decision making capability. It is child abuse plain and simple those people should be put in jail!
ie. RuPaul’s Drag Kids Part 1: Lactatia https://steemit.com/dtube/@venomnymous/37okewc7
Woah 8.8% out of 133k videos. Its a shame. Youtube really need to cracking down on this asap. If I ever have kids, I would not want them to see stuff like what you explained on YOUTUBE! Like wth!?!?

I caught my daughters watching some very disturbing videos when they were young, Happy tree friends, it was shocking.
A good thing, no doubt. What I wonder is if Youtube is going to do anything about the little drag queens heavily promoted by leftist media. I just checked and Desmond has his own channel, tons of videos of the little boy performing in drag as Lactatia. Honestly, as a mother, I'd rather have my son learn about masturbation than have him exposed to videos of a boy younger than him performing in gay bars. I don't know if Youtube is going to take those videos down.
What awful statistics and reasons why good parental supervision is a must.
