subsidiary are implementing steps to make their vast digital arenas safer for users under 18 years old.
Google said it will now block ad targeting based on the age, gender or interests of people under 18. It is also turning off its data-tracking “location history” option for users under the age of 18 anywhere in the world and add filters promoting safe searching for all minors. YouTube said in the coming weeks it will change the default upload setting to private for 13-to-17-year-olds. That means videos will be viewable only by the user and people they authorize.On YouTube, teen-aged users would still opt to make their content public.
YouTube is also aiming to promote “digital well-being” with several new measures. “We want to give younger users the tools they need to understand their use of technology,” Beser wrote. “In addition to our suite of digital well-being tools, we’ll be turning take a break and bedtime reminders on by default for all users ages 13 to 17 on YouTube.” The video platform will also deactivate the “auto-play” feature, which feeds video after video to viewers under 18.
