Google general counsel Kent Walker outlined YouTube’s counterterrorism measures in a blog post that initially ran as an op-ed in Financial Times.
Walker wrote that Google and YouTube are taking a four-step approach to removing terrorist content from the video site:
- Increasing use of technology to help identify extremist and terrorism-related videos.
- “Greatly” increasing the number of independent experts in YouTube’s Trusted Flagger program.
- Taking a tougher stance on videos that may not clearly violate YouTube’s policies.
- Expanding YouTube’s role in counter-radicalization efforts.
