Google has announced the introduction of a new feature called Safety Mode.
Safety Mode gives parents and users the option to screen out potentially objectionable content that they prefer not to see or don't want others in the family to stumble across while surfing YouTube.
An example of this type of content might be a newsworthy video that contains graphic violence such as a political protest or war coverage. Users can opt in to Safety Mode by click on the link at the bottom of any video page. Safety mode can be turned off by clicking the same link or it can be locked with a YouTube password.
