Screenshots showing YouTube autocomplete the search “How to have s*x with your kids,” has been making the rounds on 4chan and Reddit. Independent journalist Mike Cernovich tweeted a screenshot of the autocorrect Sunday, asking YouTube for a comment.

BuzzFeed reporter Charlie Warzel tried the search himself and found that indeed the search is genuine.

The top result when I tried it was "how to have s*x in school". I guess that's what Youtube calls "improvement".

It wasn't the top result for me but it was a result. Even when I put a search right up to "kids in school" the result in the title never came up.

“It wasn’t the top result for me but it was a result. Even when I put a search right up to “kids in school” the result in the title never came up.”

All I had to do was type “how to have” and it did the rest. I expect Youtube’s doing some tinkering in the search guts so such stuff won’t pop up.

I did that also but when I didn't see the result from the title I kept adding words one at a time. If Youtube tinkered then at least you have to admire their fast response time.

I’m sure they have, with the offensive result not appearing in the results. I’d hate to have to moderate any kind of a social-related site, I’ve done enough babysitting and mess-cleaning in my life!

Could be - like Google-bombing a phrase so that it shows up at the type of Google search results.

The Google search-completion software seems to know about key phrases without grasping incongruities. Whether that gave rise to this example, I don’t know. But “how to have sex” and “with your kids” would be common stand-alone phrases. The autocomplete logic might also be too clever by half here, in its way of envisioning the topic of more classic sex education.

I’d just say it needs some research before being deemed anything worse than an embarrassing coincidence.

Democrats (with help from RINOs) put our kids $20T in debt. They have been screwing our children for decades.

YouTube results are like Google results in that they try to predict based on what you’ve searched for previously.

I did not get anything remotely like what they said I would.

Maybe these perverts just revealed their own private freak,

I verified that problem yesterday evening. I’m so glad Youtube improved the search results afterwards. /sarc

It depends on what you and people “near you” have searched for. “Distance” in “near you” means either people with similar IP addresses or router locations. So there may just be a lot of people using Buzzfeed IPs who look that up.

It’s an LGPTQPB lifestyle and has become part of the law of the land. It’s right in the Constitution.

As an aside, Elsagate is real. It’s stomach-churning, and it is very dangerous to our children.

You tube refuses to remove content that is damaging and not age appropriate. Lots of icky themes couched in kiddy-type videos.

Nope, you just came along late - after Youtube had time to tweak the autocomplete. It had already cleaned up the most offensive one before I tried it, but there was still a bug or two in it.

Here’s a Google search for y’all to try. google up this phrase for some revisionist history:

president lincoln was what party?
