UK watchdogs press Meta, TikTok, Snap and YouTube to block children – CNA

LONDON, March 12 : Britain's media and privacy regulators on Thursday demanded that major social media platforms do more to keep children off their services, warning that companies were failing to enforce their own minimum age rules. Britain has been weighing tougher curbs on children's access to social media, with the government considering barring under 16s from such platforms - mirroring a move by Australia. Ofcom and the Information Commissioner's Office said they had grown increasingly concerned about algorithmic feeds that expose children to harmful or addictive content. "These online services are household names, but they're failing to put children's safety at the heart of their products," Melanie Dawes, Ofcom's chief executive, said. "That must now change quickly, or Ofcom will act." USE 'MODERN' TECH, COMPANIES TOLD In the latest implementation phase of Britain's Online Safety Act, Ofcom told Facebook and Instagram - both owned by Meta - as well as Roblox, Snapchat, ByteDance's TikTok and Alphabet's YouTube to show by April 30 how they would tighten age checks, restrict strangers from contacting children, make feeds safer and stop testing new products on minors. The ICO separately issued an open letter to the same platforms, calling on them to adopt

YouTube Expands AI Deepfake Detection Tool to Politicians, Won’t Say If Trump Is Included

YouTube is making it easier for politicians and journalists to take down AI deepfakes from its platform ahead of this year’s midterm elections. But it’s keeping quiet on who now has access to this tool. The video streaming giant announced today that it is expanding access to its likeness detection tool to journalists, government officials, and political candidates. The tool flags videos that feature a user’s likeness in AI-generated content and allows them to request unauthorized videos be taken down. “YouTube is where the world comes to understand the events shaping their lives—from breaking news to the debates that drive civic discourse,” wrote Amjad Hanif, YouTube vice president of creator products, and Leslie Miller, vice president of government affairs and public policy, in a blog post. “As AI-generated content evolves, the individuals at the center of these conversations need reliable tools to protect their identities.” The expansion comes as AI deepfakes have gotten pretty impressive, raising concerns about their potential to spread misinformation especially around elections. The news also comes as YouTube has been increasingly leaning more into AI. Last year, the company brought a custom version of Google’s video-generation model, Veo 3, to Shorts—YouTube’s TikTok- and Instagram Reels-like feed

YouTube now allows politicians, journalists to request removal of AI deepfakes – AV Club

About six months ago , YouTube unveiled a “likeness detection tool,” which helped a select group of creators to search for AI deepfakes of themselves on the site. Today, YouTube announced that it had expanded this tool to “a pilot group of government officials, journalists, and political candidates,” according to a blog post shared by the site.  This does sound like a decent step toward fighting disinformation on the platform. However, it also sounds like a lot of the onus is still on the people who have been the subject of the deepfakes in the first place. After the government official, journalist, or political candidate uploads a video verifying their identity, YouTube will flag potential deepfakes for them to report and request to remove. However , “detection does not guarantee removal,” reads the blog. “YouTube has a long history of protecting free expression and content in the public interest—including preserving content like parody and satire, even when used to critique world leaders or influential figures. We’ll continue to carefully evaluate these exceptions when we receive requests for removal.” We’re sure the line between satire and disinformation on YouTube will be an easy and uncontroversial one to draw!  If you can’t

YouTube to take over feeding Phil duties in 2027 – AV Club

There’s no loyalty when it comes to feeding Phil. When Phil Rosenthal first made the act of feeding him a national concern, the Everybody Loves Raymond co-creator asked the average TV viewer to fund his eating habits, which consist of traveling the world, enjoying various culinary delicacies, and expressing joy with a wide-eyed, close-mouthed smile. However, much like the once-publicly funded Sesame Street, those greedy streamers placed Phil’s gluttony behind a paywall, and from 2018 through 2025, the somebody feeding Phil was the world’s biggest streamer. Now a bona fide restaurateur himself, who makes his money feeding others, Rosenthal has found a new hand to feed him: YouTube.  Per The Hollywood Reporter , YouTube will begin picking up Rosenthal’s checks starting in 2027, with Rosenthal saying Somebody Feed Phil‘s move to YouTube is intended to make the show more accessible. YouTube won’t have exclusive rights to feeding Phil, mind you. In a new deal with his production company, Lucky Bastards, and Banijay Americas, the show will also appear on FAST and AVOD services free of charge to viewers. Apparently unhappy with Netflix’s velvet rope approach to his millionaire-muckbang routine, Rosenthal said in a statement, “One of the things I always
