The Core Burning Fire Behind FilterTube
Real parent requests that YouTube ignored—until one parent asked if any programmer could build a solution.
🔒
Google Support Thread: "How to block videos by keyword or tag?"
https://support.google.com/youtubekids/thread/54509605/
Thread locked by YouTube staff
"I need to block videos containing certain keywords for my child's safety. This should be a basic feature. YouTube Kids is supposed to be safe, but inappropriate content still gets through. Why doesn't YouTube provide proper keyword filtering?"
!
Evidence of CensorshipYouTube staff actively removed parent comments and locked the thread. Many replies now show "This reply is no longer available" — clear evidence that genuine requests for child safety features are being silenced.
The Spark: One parent comment that was deleted asked:"If any programmer is reading this, could you build a solution since YouTube won't?"
That deleted comment was the core burning fire that started FilterTube.

🔥 The Core Burning Fire
One parent's deleted plea—"If any programmer is reading this, could you build a solution?"— sparked FilterTube's creation. When YouTube silences parents asking for basic child safety features, the open source community steps up to fill the gap.
FilterTube exists because parents deserve better than corporate indifference to child safety.
