Google’s CEO Reminds Us Why We Should Switch to DuckDuckGo (Video)

Google’s CEO says he wants to see YouTube expand its crackdown on content.

The company’s chairman, Sundar Pichai, said he’s hoping to take Google’s model of prioritizing of “quality content” over to YouTube.

Pichai spoke with Axios’ Ina Fried, who expressed concern the tech company wasn’t taking a harder line against offensive content, pointing out a video she had seen of a “teenager who appeared to be donning Muslim garb, spewing a lot of anti-Muslim, anti-Semitic, homophobic hate.”

“I don’t know all the details of this specific video, but in general, look, I mean all of us, you know, none of us want harmful content on our platforms,” Pichai said. “Last quarter alone we removed 9 million videos from the platform.”

The CEO then said he wants to expand YouTube’s view of what’s prohibited.

As I wrote in an earlier post, I’ve subsequently switched my default search engine to DuckDuckGo.  Here are instructions on how to make DuckDuckGo the default search for the Chrome browser.  If you use Google apps, like Gmail or Drive, you can sill get to them from Chrome by using the “Apps” tab on the far left of the menu bar.
