Variety of content is one of the great things about YouTube. But some of you want a more restricted experience. That's why Google has announced Safety Mode, an opt-in setting that helps screen out potentially objectionable content that you may prefer not to see or don't want others in your family to stumble across while enjoying YouTube. An example of this type of content might be a newsworthy video that contains realistic violence such as a political protest or war coverage. While no filter is 100% perfect, Safety Mode is another step in Google’s ongoing desire to give you greater control over the content you see on the site.
It's easy to choose in to Safety Mode: Just click on the link at the bottom of any video page. You can even lock your option on that browser with your YouTube password. To learn more, check out the video below.
And remember, ALL content must still comply with Google’s Community Guidelines. Safety Mode isn't fool proof, but it provides a greater degree of control over your YouTube knowledge. Safety Mode is continuing out to all users throughout the day, watch for the new link at the bottom of any YouTube page.
