YouTube users will get a 24-hour timeout if their toxic comments are removed
to encourage"respectful" interactions, but it's now taking a more assertive approach with warnings and timeouts.
If YouTube detects and removes abusive comments, it will notify the user that they've violated community guidelines. If the same person continues to post toxic comments, they'll receive a"timeout" and be unable to leave further comments for 24 hours. If users believe their comments shouldn't have been pulled, they can share that feedback — though YouTube didn't say if that would help remove the timeout.
Prior to the rollout today, YouTube trialed the featured and found it to be effective."Our testing has shown that these warnings/timeouts reduce the likelihood of users leaving violative comments again," it wrote in the blog post. You can disable notifications at any time in your settings menu.
