YouTube Announces Policy Change to Ban Videos Promoting Eating Disorders

YouTube will ban videos showing 'imitable behavior' linked to eating disorders among young users.
The new policy expands YouTube's rules prohibiting content that 'glorifies or promotes' eating disorders.
Videos about eating disorders showing 'imitable behavior' will be prohibited.
Educational, documentary, scientific or artistic eating disorder content will still be allowed with restrictions.
These videos will feature 'crisis resource panels' providing mental health resources for users with eating disorders.
