“We’re absolutely horrified and have reached out to YouTube to rectify this immediately,” said a Grammarly representative. “We have a strict policy against advertising alongside harmful or offensive content. We would never knowingly associate ourselves with channels like this.”

“[We find it] repulsive that pedophiles are using YouTube for their criminal activities,” added a rep for the World Business Forum.
YouTube claims it is 99 [percent] effective at making sure ads only run on appropriate content, but recent findings have certainly put that statistic in question.
With just a few quick searches, anyone with a blank YouTube account can pull up hundreds of ‘recommended’ videos that are frequented by pedophiles. To worsen matters, these videos aren’t only recommended, “its algorithm specifically suggests videos that are seemingly popular with other pedophiles, most of which have hundreds of thousands of views and dozens of disturbing comments,” according to a report by Wired. The majority of these include ads, contrary to YouTube’s claim.
YouTuber Matt Watson recently released a series of videos exposing how poor YouTube’s attempts to ward off pedophiles have been. Watson describes a “wormhole” in the algorithm that can be replicated in seconds with a couple of searches and video views. He demonstrates how one innocuous search leads him to one video, and then another.
“Two clicks,” said Watson. “I am now in the wormhole…look at this sidebar. There is nothing but little girls.”
