Viewers will also have the option to unblur thumbnails.The goal of the limited test rollout is to “understand whether this type of feature helps users avoid accidentally viewing content that follows YouTube’s Community Guidelines but may be sensitive in nature.” But unlike SafeSearch that can both blur and filter out results on Google’s search engine, YouTube’s new experimental feature won’t omit results. In its current form it’s instead designed to provide an extra layer of protection that prevents younger or unsuspecting users from immediately being presented with content that may be inappropriate.See More: CreatorsGoogleNewsTechYouTubeMost PopularMost PopularAmazon has no choice but to display tariffs on prices nowSlate Auto confirms where it’ll build its $20,000 TruckNew Starlink subscription drops hardware price to $0Duolingo will replace contract workers with AIThe DJI Phantom is no moreInstallerA weekly newsletter by David Pierce designed to tell you everything you need to download, watch, read, listen to, and explore that fits in The Verge’s universe.Email (required)Sign UpBy submitting your email, you agree to our Terms and Privacy Notice.
