These often engaging videos can be extreme, disturbing and surprising \u2014 leading people to regret watching the video at all.&nbsp;Therefore the non-profit Mozilla, owner of the non-tracking Firefox, decided to understand the process, as YouTube never responded to their questions. They produced a browser extension, RegreteReporter, for users to install and thus to tell whenever they regret seeing a video. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>37,000 volunteers from 190 countries installed the extension, 3.362 from 91 countries reported back to Mozilla and based on the data, Mozilla concludes that most of the regrets (71%) came from videos suggested by YouTube by their automatic recommendataion algorithm.  The most frequent regret categories were misinformation, violent or graphic content, hate speech, and spam\/scams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mozilla recommends following: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Platforms must enable researchers to audit recommendation systems.<\/li><li>Platforms must publish information about how recommendation systems work,as well as transparency reports that give sufficient insight into problem areas and progress over time.<\/li><li>Policy makers must require YouTube to release information and create tools that enable independent scrutiny of their recommendatio nalgorithms.<\/li><li>Policy makers must protect researchers, journalists,and other watchdogs who use alternative methods than those provided by platformsto investigate them.<\/li><li>People should update data settings on YouTube and Google to make sure they have the right controls in place for themselves andtheir families.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternative platforms to YouTube: Vimeo.com, twentythree.net, Dtube and <a href=\"https:\/\/nordvpn.com\/da\/blog\/youtube-alternatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">many others<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/youtubes-search-algorithm-directs-viewers-to-false-and-sexualized-videos-study-finds-11625644803\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YouTube\u2019s Search Algorithm Directs Viewers to False and Sexualized Videos, Study Finds<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/foundation.mozilla.org\/en\/campaigns\/regrets-reporter\/findings\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Get the full report<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YouTube&#8217;s recommended videos drives 70% of views, according to the the Google-owned company.
