New York CNN —YouTube is implementing new safeguards that could help prevent the platform from sending teen users down potentially harmful content rabbit holes. The platform plans to limit repeated content recommendations for videos on certain topics, including content that idealizes certain body weights, James Beser, director of product management for YouTube Kids and Youth, said in a blog post Thursday. In 2021, lawmakers called out Instagram and YouTube for promoting accounts featuring content depicting extreme weight loss and dieting to young users. Earlier this year, YouTube rolled out changes to its policies on eating disorder content, adding prohibitions on certain types of videos on the topic and limiting others to be viewable by only adult users. The reminders will be set to pop up every hour as a default for teen users, although parents can update their frequency.
