The whole: youtube has to be children friendly is the dumbest thing ever. If you let your children unsupervised browse YouTube you ar ea bad parent, if you let YouTube raise your children you are also a bad parent. Just because youtubers say frick, it’s not child friendly it’s annoying

Hard agree. Buy your kids DVD sets or pirate if you know how and limit their screen time.

Dropping kids in front of youtube is shitty patenting.

Kids ask for a YouTube show, I get to evaluate and then they get safe watching

Just like I got DVDs as a child, my kid would get a hard drive with approved material.

That’s the funniest part of it, it’s only security theater. I know content creators who go by the ideology of swearing is allowed it just can’t be in the first 30 seconds of the video which is hilarious to me. So you’re telling me that the first 30 seconds is the only part of the video that matters? Makes me laugh

Meanwhile I can’t even upload commercials for archival purposes without getting copyright strikes on my account. How is YouTube so bad at this.

Copyright protection is easy. Detection of novel forms of obscenity is hard.

I’d argue it’s extremely hard, even.

You know, as much as I hate it… “you know it when you see I but hard to definet” really is accurate.

There’s plenty of things that aren’t outright illegal that are completely inappropriate around children.

And if there are things that are context specific, it gets a lot harder to make a computer recognize a problem.

Audio cues are easy to scan for and computers are pretty good at recognizing sounds, especially in regards to copyright detection (even if their interpretation of “fair use” clause is still fucked 6 ways)

Video is a lot harder unless the computer is trying to match direct images (it’s a lot easier to recognize a still frame from The Avengers when it’s uploaded full size than it is to recognize a slightly warped, smaller cropped version with someone in front of it commenting on the video)

Because that’s the way the legal system works.

“Oops, had some harmful/illegal content on there? Nobody was /really/ hurt, or at least, we weren’t directly causing harm. I’ll take it down and eat a small fine.

Vs

“Oh I’m sorry, I’ll take down the 30s clip of your 90s movie. it has caused you 3million in damages? I’m so sorry, here’s some tools that will automate detection and removal of your property. I’m so sorry”
