Speaking during one of the YouTube-themed events at last week’s Google I/O event, Google man Dror Shimshowitz claimed it’s working on some sort of system to bring an end to the torrent of misery unleashed daily by the comments beneath YouTube videos.
When asked about the difficult area of the always abusive YouTube comments, Shimshowitz said: “We’re working on some improvements to the comment system, so hopefully we’ll have an update on that in the next few months.” Obviously Google doesn’t want people to just switch off the comments, as that’s a big source of additional page views and revenue for the company, so it’s working on something else.
However, nothing more was said about the mechanics of the system, whether it’ll be an approval system, rude word filter or something more clever. Hopefully it’ll make scrolling down less of a depressing descent into the pits of hell, whatever form it takes, and lessen the workload of the YouTube Complaints Department. [Wired]
Google+ Is YouTube's Secret Hate-Filled Comment Nuking Weapon
Here's Who's Leaving All Those Incredibly Inappropriate YouTube Comments
Let's See How Well YouTube's Real-Name Comment Policy Is Working
One of the things they ARE going to do is link your Youtube account to your G+ account. This is entirely voluntary right now, but that may change in the future. It will probably give people pause if forced to comment under their real, traceable & bannable names.
One problem…I’d wager there’s about a gazillion YouTube Users for every active user of Google+
currently.
Until Google signs everyone with a Google Account up to G+ without them knowing..
Slight problem with that, my G+ account that is linked to youtube isn’t my real account. It has no information on it that could disclose my real identity. I doubt I’m the only person that has done this.
And it hasn’t stopped people from being douches on sites that use a facebook login.
But that’s just because people who use Facebook ARE douches
Agreed. lol.
