YouTube vowed to halt comments on videos with young kids. It hasn't

An outcry about pedophilia made YouTube promise it would shut off comments on videos with kids age 13 and younger. Six months later, they're still easy to find.

Youtube is about to embark on its most significant changes to kids videos yet. Google's massive online video site is re-engineering how it treats clips for children following last week's record $170 million penalty for violating kids' data privacy: YouTube pledged to disable comments, notifications and personalized ads on all videos directed at children. And its machine learning will police YouTube's sprawling catalog to keep kids videos in line, the company said.
