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.

    • Samsung messages is still alive and well. They reversed that and decided to our more effort into it.
    • I think every American should have a course in a 'dry sense of humour' at school; and perhaps 'using sarcasm in jest' oh, and also 'the use or irony in humour'.
    • What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
