成人快手

YouTube has been criticised for failing to take responsibility for videos posted on the platform. So can it be trusted to control potentially harmful content?

The video-sharing site is just 14, but there's no doubt it has become a giant of global communication. According to the company's own figures, it has more than a billion users around the globe, watching more than a billion hours of videos every day.

At the same time as it has grown phenomenally popular, however, YouTube has also been accused of spreading conspiracy theories and radicalising people into violent extremism. It has also been blamed for allowing hate speech, while failing to protect users from harmful videos.

And so it's only fair to ask: can YouTube really be trusted? In a rare interview with the 成人快手, YouTube UK managing director Ben McOwen Wilson gives us a glimpse into the company鈥檚 thinking about the many challenges and controversies it has faced in recent months.
