Episode notes
YouTube's New Profanity Rules
- YouTube changed profanity guidelines, now allowing certain strong expletives in the first 7 seconds without demonetization.
- High-frequency swearing across the entire video still violates monetization policies.
Evolution of Offensive Language
- Words that were once medical terms have been replaced due to offensive use (e.g., 'idiot') but new terms eventually face the same fate.
- Language evolves as insults shift to newer terms often rooted in medical classifications.
Problems with Age Verification
- Age verification laws force platforms to adopt intrusive checks like facial recognition and credit info.
- These measures risk creating huge data pools vulnerable to breaches while being ineffective against determined minors.
