Industry committee  It's a very difficult conversation to have because, obviously, in working as a platform we need to respect that there are authorities and elected leaders who are giving specific points of view. What we try to do and what you will see on YouTube is that, if a video is dealing spe

Industry committee  I am parsing what you just said. In terms of domain registry and actual geographic location, that process involves CIRA in the first step, and then ICANN, the international registry, secondarily. For most websites, I think what you first turn to is actual criminal law enforcemen

Industry committee  We've had engaged conversations.

Industry committee  We made the decision to both anonymize and aggregate so there isn't any personal information or any identifiable information related to a user. In this case, we didn't make any notifications because it is general trends, and they have analysis over a very broad subset of users.

Industry committee  Yes, that's why we look to public health authorities for guidance and it's also why we have explicit definitions for our guidelines, so that people can interpret them.

Industry committee  I think you hinted in your question that there are various levels in which YouTube videos are affected by a violation of our community guidelines. In some cases they're demonetized so you can't make advertising revenue from them. In other cases, they're rendered private so you ca

Industry committee  The community mobility reports are generated using aggregated and anonymized data from Google users who have opted in to location history. They've explicitly decided to share their location history with us on their mobile device. We've taken that and anonymized and aggregated it,

Industry committee  Those two are not connected. If you're using your phone with location history enabled, that is one function within your phone and YouTube is another.
