# I don't care... #

Smash it, own it!

0:00:000:00:00

Hi, I'm Martin and

this is Newsround.

0:00:130:00:15

First, have you ever seen anything

on YouTube that worried you?

0:00:150:00:23

There's been lots of reports

about videos being put on YouTube

0:00:230:00:25

that are not suitable for kids.

0:00:250:00:28

And we've heard from kids who have

seen upsetting videos on YouTube

0:00:280:00:31

and YouTube Kids when they thought

they were watching something

0:00:310:00:33

meant for a children.

0:00:330:00:37

So, as part of Safer Internet Day,

Hayley decided to ask

0:00:370:00:40

YouTube what's going on.

0:00:400:00:41

Chardonnay, Lamar, Molly,

Siddique and Umema invited me

0:00:410:00:43

to their school to tell me

about their experiences on YouTube.

0:00:430:00:45

So we asked Katie

to come and meet us.

0:00:450:00:48

She's the director of policy

for Google who own YouTube.

0:00:480:00:52

So, first of all, can you tell us

how you are going to make it as safe

0:00:520:00:56

as possible for kids?

0:00:560:00:57

We've actually built a whole

new platform called YouTube Kids

0:00:570:00:59

where we take the best content,

the stuff that you're most

0:00:590:01:02

interested in, and put it

on there in a packaged-up place

0:01:020:01:04

just for kids.

0:01:040:01:05

These kids here have got stories

to tell you about their experiences

0:01:050:01:08

on YouTube and YouTube Kids.

0:01:080:01:10

So, Chardonnay, would

you like to go first?

0:01:100:01:11

I was on YouTube listening to a song

and an advert came up

0:01:110:01:15

with scary messages.

0:01:150:01:16

When I was on Kids YouTube,

I was watching a child-friendly

0:01:160:01:19

video by a YouTuber

who was quite famous.

0:01:190:01:21

In the video, the YouTuber

started swearing.

0:01:210:01:23

When I was on YouTube,

I logged into a kid-friendly video

0:01:230:01:25

about slime and a scary image popped

up of a clown with blood on it.

0:01:250:01:30

I felt really scared and I couldn't

sleep that day and I feel YouTube

0:01:300:01:34

should check the videos

because there are lots of children

0:01:340:01:37

from very different ages watching.

0:01:370:01:41

I think YouTube should watch it

before we watch it so kids

0:01:410:01:44

like me don't get scared.

0:01:440:01:49

All these guys have been upset

or hurt in some way by what they've

0:01:490:01:53

seen on YouTube and Kids YouTube,

so what have you got to say to them?

0:01:530:01:57

We don't want anyone to have a tough

or bad experience and we work really

0:01:570:02:00

hard to make sure people can see

the kind of content we want.

0:02:000:02:03

So I'm really sorry for all

of you who have had good experiences

0:02:030:02:06

on YouTube but also had bad

or tough experiences.

0:02:060:02:09

Isn't that too late for the kids?

0:02:090:02:10

They are seeing dangerous things

on YouTube and YouTube Kids.

0:02:100:02:13

Surely you have a responsibility

to check these things before

0:02:130:02:15

any child sees them?

0:02:150:02:18

We have a responsibility to make

sure that the platform can

0:02:180:02:21

survive and can thrive

and so that we have a collection

0:02:210:02:23

of content that comes

from around the world on there,

0:02:230:02:26

and we want people to be able to do

that in a safe and responsible way.

0:02:260:02:30

We also know that there is a diverse

amount of content on YouTube,

0:02:300:02:33

as there is on the wider internet,

and it wouldn't be fair if I sat

0:02:330:02:37

here and said to you,

"We can make it perfectly safe."

0:02:370:02:39

But things are still going wrong.

0:02:390:02:41

Kids are still seeing

things on Kids YouTube

0:02:410:02:43

that are inappropriate.

0:02:430:02:44

Do you need to work harder?

0:02:440:02:45

Do you need to do more?

0:02:450:02:47

Absolutely, we need to do more.

0:02:470:02:48

We need to do more to make sure

children are able to experience

0:02:480:02:51

the internet in a way that they feel

confident of, in a way

0:02:510:02:59

that they feel safe,

in a way that they can flag content

0:03:000:03:03

that isn't correct and they can

get their education and support

0:03:030:03:05

from us and from wider family

and friends and school too.

0:03:050:03:08

All these kids here have been

quite hurt and upset.

0:03:080:03:11

Some of them have not been

able to sleep at night

0:03:110:03:13

after what they saw on YouTube.

0:03:130:03:15

Would you like to take this

opportunity to say sorry to them

0:03:150:03:17

and other kids who might have

seen anything disturbing?

0:03:170:03:20

I find it very tough to hear that

you've seen and experienced things

0:03:200:03:23

that you didn't want to and that

you found really difficult on there.

0:03:230:03:26

I would really like to make

sure that that doesn't

0:03:260:03:28

happen again and I'm very,

very sorry for any hurt

0:03:280:03:31

or discomfort that you found

because that's not nice,

0:03:310:03:34

at any age.

0:03:340:03:35

While we're talking about staying

safe online, we know things

0:03:350:03:38

you see and hear online can

hurt your feelings or confuse you.

0:03:380:03:41

But you don't need to be scared.

0:03:410:03:43

Own It is a new BBC

website which can help.

0:03:430:03:47

So, head to bbc.co.uk/ownit

for real-life stories,

0:03:470:03:49

advice from experts,

fun quizzes, and videos

0:03:490:03:52

with celebs and vloggers.

0:03:520:03:57

100 years ago today,

a change in the law gave women

0:03:570:03:59

in the UK the right to vote

in elections for

0:03:590:04:02

the very first time.

0:04:020:04:04

They still didn't have the same

voting rights as men,

0:04:040:04:07

but this marked an important step

towards getting equality

0:04:070:04:09

between men and women.

0:04:090:04:11

But what does equality mean?

0:04:110:04:14

We spoke to some amazing women

to see what they had to say.

0:04:140:04:18

It means that if the boys can do

it, you can do it too.

0:04:180:04:21

Equality to me means listening

to everybody and valuing

0:04:210:04:24

what they have to say,

no matter who they are.

0:04:240:04:29

I see it loads in school where girls

can't act the same way as boys or do

0:04:290:04:33

the same things and then they get

personally attacked by boys

0:04:330:04:36

and that's not really cool.

0:04:360:04:44

And to see that video

in full, or if you want

0:04:470:04:49

to know more about this

0:04:490:04:51

subject, then head online

where we've got all

0:04:510:04:53

you need to know.

0:04:530:04:54

Take a look.

0:04:540:04:55

That's it from me for now.

0:04:550:04:56

We'll be back at 8.15.

0:04:560:04:57

Bye.
