For the last week or so, I notice the little thumbnails along the right side of Youtube's layout - there is a lot of nudity.

I even saw some sex scenes.  I haven't searched for anything like that (for the main reason is I thought YouTube didnt have anything like that)

But lately, I am noticiing instances of it, regardless of what I am looking @.  

I understand (somewhat) the algorithm used to show similar videos on the right column - so I can see how it is a mix of a variety of things I look @ on YouTube, but it just seems to always have nudity in it lately.

Has the policy changed, or are the interweb gods telling me Im a perv ?

Anyone else notice this ?

Here is a quick example (I covered up the nips and pubic area so it wouldnt get censored from neo mods)  hopefully

It will pop up in nearly every search string (meaning it has probably been adopted into my search algorithm) OR .. they are all over the place !   BOOBS !!!

Nudity and sex have generally been disallowed in Youtube for like ever

Of course you can still find it, won't get pulled till it's reported, plus there's a lot of troll accounts that post thumbnails with "nudity" in it to get clicks, but nothing in the actual videos

Question is, what were you searching for that got these suggestions on your feed

Yeah i notice it too, most of the time they would appear on "Recently uploaded" or "Recommended videos for you".

But i don't see the point, as free porn video websites are abundant these days and they usually did not have in-video ads-clips, unlike YT..,

You'd be surpised. I have had them show up for "golf babe videos," when I am looking for PGA highlights. I have never once searched youtube for anything provacative, we have google for that, yet I get these random thumbnails. Another example is "hot babes in fast cars, reaction videos" which show up after some time of browsing street racing videos.

Funny thing is, nothing directly related to nudity - I can see patterns, and see how it might work its way in due to their SE algorithms - (that title/topic of the nude thumb video might have something in common with a topic I looked @)

But like others mentioned, if I was going to look for something like that - I wouldnt do it in YouTube.  maybe PornTube, RedTube, or .....  ohh whoops

You looked at some similar sex related video, now you're getting recommendations, it's normal.

The very naughty thumbs get deleted within hours, Google has people working on these since forever.


Not searched directly, but sometimes I can see a common topic, others, the nudity in the thumbnail doesnt make sense.


I just never noticed it until now - so I thought either (a) its new  (b)  I never noticed it before (c) there is some crumb of a cookie which is causing these recessed vids to come through (d) there is a god, and he likes me.

( (d) cant be true - so it has to be one of the others)

If its for breast feeding they allow it. There's videos out there that show full on frontal nudity  but because its about breast feeding it was allowed. I dont know if its still up or not but I stumbled on it once.

I like how I'll watch a video on something mundane like what tools to use to cut a rock and half of the thumbnails on the right will be women's asses. I don't see the relationship.

Usually those videos get a ton of dislikes because they bait people in.

    • I'm not aware of this issue, but to help the other guys.  What version of Android are you using? Did you try a different browser? To see if Edge is the issue here.
    • I agree when are you going to read this (really poor BTW) article? Here is a better article so you actually know what is going on and answers questions you had in other comments --> https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/05/speed-boosting-low-latency-profile-is-one-of-the-improvements-coming-to-windows-11/ It is unclear if one will be able to disable the new profile at this point but I am not seeing any reason why one would.
    • I disagree; they come off very "bitchy" and "whiny". Make a great product and combine that with a great price (free) and people will come over to your side. Or build it and they will come as they say. Constantly trying to get attention by complaining all the time, will turn people off to your product.
    • It use to be a nightmare, with LibreOffice supporting a newer draft ODF standard by default, and Microsoft Office supporting the older non-draft standard. Now that they both support the same version of ODF, they should be interoperable.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.171 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package.
