A U.S. House subcommittee is investigating YouTube Kids, saying the Google-owned video service feeds children inappropriate material in "a wasteland of vapid, consumerist content" so it can serve them ads.
The inquiry comes despite Google agreeing to pay US$170 million in 2019 to settle allegations that YouTube collected personal data on children without their parents' consent.
