What is harmful and dangerous Conduct?
While it might not seem fair to say you can’t show something because of what viewers theoretically might do in response, we draw the line at content that’s intended to incite violence, encourages or shows dangerous or illegal activities that have an inherent risk of serious physical harm or death. This means not posting videos on things like instructional bomb making, instructional drug use, sniper attacks, or tips on illegal street racing.
Any depictions of such content must be documentary and shouldn’t be designed to help or encourage others to imitate them.
It’s possible that a video you upload could trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy - a type of epilepsy in which seizures are caused by certain visual stimuli. If your content contains flashing lights or contrasting patterns like stripes or checkerboards, please consider adding a video annotation in the beginning of your video to warn viewers: “This content may trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy.” To learn more about photosensitive epilepsy please visit Epilepsy Action.
Quick Tips: Don't post videos showing reckless or dangerous conduct like substance abuse, under-age drinking and smoking, or dangerous driving. Graphic or gratuitous violence is not allowed. If your video shows someone being physically hurt, attacked, or humiliated, don't post it. |
FAQ:
Q: What if I'm being safe in my video?
A:
Experimenting with the unknown can be fun, but remember your audience. If you are showing an experiment that could potentially get people hurt from following what you do in your video, your video may be subject to age restriction and sometimes removal.
If your video contains activities which are potentially dangerous, please make sure to provide as much information as possible on safety measures taken, and provide warnings to let people know that it might not be something to try at home.
Q: What if I'm showing a harmful dangerous act to warn others that it's dangerous, not promote it?
A: You'll still need as much information as possible. Just showing an activity may not make the message clear that it's not safe. Be as thorough as possible in letting people know why it's dangerous and why they shouldn't do it. Be aware that even though you are speaking out against it, it may still be labeled for 18 and up only.
