YouTube Sexual Standards

So that's the symphony part -- now, here's the sex: YouTube has to revise its policies surrounding "mature" content effective immediately. The changes feature a stricter definition of "sexually suggestive" content that will include any videos showing people in "minimal or revealing clothing." Well, there goes .

All content deemed to be "sexually suggestive" under the updated code will be flagged as age-restricted. (Translation: Sixteen-year-olds will now have to enter in a fake birthday before being able to access it.) In addition, the material will be "algorithmically demoted" on YouTube's primary pages -- lists like the "Most Viewed" or "Top Favorited" videos.

I'll spare you the full details of the revised standards, but should you be so inclined, you can read them in their entirety .
