TL;DR
- There have now been two significant instances of a YouTube porn ad appearing in users’ mobile feeds.
- We asked Google what it was doing to prevent this from happening.
- The company has issued a statement that answers only some of our questions.
At the beginning of this month, we caught word of a pornographic advertisement making the rounds on YouTube. Somehow, this ad — which included pornographic video and sound — made it through YouTube’s moderation system and became a live, viewable ad. Google removed it and issued us a statement on the matter.
