Investigate Google/Youtube for negligence towards Porn Bots and protect under age online users
For the last three years, users of the online platform, YouTube, which is currently owned by Google, have seen a consistent influx of bot accounts with adult entertainment and sexual themes. Often women showing their bare breasts and buttocks are the channel's profile photo and artwork. These bot accounts are always trying to lead users off the platform to an adult entertainment site. YouTube has another feature called "YouTube Kids" and have policies to protect children on their platform. However since late 2022, early 2023, a user created a program that allowed several false accounts (known as bot accounts) to flood the comments feed of several users, potentially exposing pornography to under age users on their platform. All across the internet from Youtube itself, to the online community "Reddit", users have spoken very vocally about this situation. Meaning that Google, a search engine king, is well aware by 2025, and to this day has not given any statement or made any efforts to mitigate the issue. Google is aware of the porn bot problem. They're not doing anything about it. This potentially waives any immunity protections they may receive under Section 230.
