YouTube says it will to remove videos in India that have clickbait titles and thumbnails

YouTube in India is intensifying its efforts to combat deceptive content. It has declared its intention to crack down on videos that have deceptive names and thumbnails, a practice commonly referred to as "egregious clickbait." This is part of YouTube's constant endeavour to guarantee that users, especially those interested in news and current affairs, enjoy a reliable experience when they visit the site.

YouTube is preparing to crack down harder on videos that make false claims in their titles or thumbnails. A video captioned "The President Has Resigned!" for example, could garner interest. However, the video would be considered "egregious clickbait" if it didn't discuss such a departure. Likewise, a thumbnail claiming "Top Political News" but lacking any actual news would likewise be reported. Viewers of YouTube have long been annoyed by clickbait headlines and thumbnails.

The large amount of content published by Indian artists about news and current events is one of the reasons this enforcement was initiated in India. As YouTube's user base in India keeps expanding, the company wants to make sure that sensational or deceptive headlines and thumbnails aren't misleading visitors. YouTube intends to improve user experience by implementing these new guidelines so that consumers can trust the videos they click on to provide the promised material.

Due to the new policy's preference for recent uploads, older videos that break the rules might not be the first to be enforced. Creators are urged, therefore, to examine their current work and make the required changes to prevent problems in the future. Additionally, YouTube intends to provide instructional materials to assist creators in comprehending what constitutes "egregious clickbait" and how to adhere to the platform's guidelines.
