On his WhatsApp status, Ameer criticised the film’s portrayal of Muslims, writing: “Even in the leaked footage of Jana Nayagan, Muslims are portrayed as terrorists. Is this your politics? When will this mindset change?” The reaction that followed was swift. Social media users slammed the director for viewing and discussing content from a major film leak. The criticism was two-pronged: many took issue with the substance of his remark, while others argued that by watching and publicly commenting on pirated footage, Ameer had legitimised the very act that the rest of the …

Published by Parlour News

YouTube has announced a set of updates aimed at giving families more control over how children and teenagers use the platform, as part of its long-standing effort to make online viewing safer and more age-appropriate. The video-sharing platform says teens come to YouTube for many reasons, from studying and following their favourite creators to listening to podcasts or catching up on sports highlights. Instead of keeping young users away from the digital world, YouTube says its goal is to protect them while allowing them to explore it responsibly. YouTube has focused its strategy on three main areas based on recommendations from parents and child development specialists—assisting children in developing healthy viewing habits, guaranteeing stronger security and age-appropriate content, and streamlining account setup so families can select what experience they want for every child.

A new setting allows them to limit the Shorts feed, and soon parents will even be able to set that limit to zero. According to …
