Last week I did the most naïve thing I could.

My son has a Google Account connected to my family group, but his YouTube account was getting really weird recommendations.

So I decided the worst: I gave my son’s real age to Alphabet, assuming YouTube would block weird, adult content.

That was quite the opposite.

All gore and adult content is still being recommended, even though his account is now childish. I’ve been spending hours blocking violent, horror, and sexual content from its account, and YouTube keeps making them come anyway though, no matter what I do.

In other hand, content from Neil deGrasse Tyson, for instance, and science content refuting antivax, Flat Earth, or any other conspiracy bullshit, are now blocked by YouTube, classified as inappropriate for children.

Obviously antivax content, Flat Earth, violence, and so are also considered okay for children by YouTube, as well as gore.

Lemme put it in a clearer way:

GOOGLE CONSIDERS SCIENCE INAPPROPRIATE FOR CHILDREN.

But…

GOOGLE CONSIDERS GORE, SCIENTIFIC DENIALISM, AND SEXUAL INNUENDO OKAY FOR CHILDREN.

Heil USA and their transnational big techs… 😢
