YouTube is an American video-sharing website headquartered in San Bruno, California. Online video streaming has been one of the most revolutionary additions to the Internet.
There is always undesirable content over there that you can do without, and the age-old issue of why you get recommended certain videos remains puzzling. Thankfully, the company has just introduced new features that will put both of those problems to rest.
YouTube recently announced the introduction of new features for the platform which will bring greater transparency and control for users. Of course, the aim is to enable the mitigation of harmful content by empowering users to control what they see.
In a profound blog post, YouTube manager Essam El-Dardiyr wrote, “One thing we’ve consistently heard from you is that you want more control over what videos appear on your homepage and in Up Next suggestions. So we’re doing more to put you in the driver’s seat.”
