Horrible new feature as usual. It’s stuck on, and it wont turn off. I never turned it on, but somehow it’s locked to on. I live alone and only I use my computer. Clearing cookies does nothing to help it. I heard the only solution was to make a new youtube account. FFS.

I can’t even go to You Tube now. Alle I get when I try to go the website is Authorization Error. And I see in the internet address window the following:
http://www.youtube.com/set_safety_mode?safety_mode=true&persist_safety_mode=1&next_url=http://www.youtube.com/. I can’t even get to any youtube content to turn the feature (if you can call it that) off. Isn’t information technology wonderful? NOT!!!
