You think teens are being exposed to porn and gore on YouTube and tiktok??

Not, ya know, pornhub and liveleak?

That's a pretty fuckin weird take since YouTube and tiktok are well known for overly aggressive content moderation

Obviously, you can just search google for porn. Head to a library, I’m sure you’ll find stuff there some people say is smut. “The Algorithm” doesn’t catch it all. What it pulls down and “moderates” is copyrighted content. The rest, they get to when they get to it.
