YouTube has new rules to safeguard teens, support mental health
YouTube has been working to support teen wellbeing and mental health on the platform. The Google-owned company has now announced a few more ‘guardrails’ to ensure their safety, privacy and wellbeing as well as help teens navigate their growing individual interests.
Limiting recommendations of videos
YouTube said it is limiting repeated recommendations of videos related to topics that idealise unhealthy standards or behaviours and emphasise potentially problematic messages. This is first being done for teens in the US, with more countries to be added over the next year.
