Upcoming changes to commenting behavior on YouTube for Google Apps customers

Posted: 28 Jul 2015 12:56 PM PDT

This week we announced some upcoming changes to the way Google+ and YouTube will interact moving forward that will make commenting simpler and more streamlined. For Google Apps customers with YouTube enabled, there are few key changes to highlight:

  • Comments posted on YouTube will now appear only on YouTube, not also on Google+ (and vice-versa). We will remove the "Also share on Google+" checkbox from the YouTube commenting interface.
  • Individuals in a Google Apps domain will no longer have the ability to restrict comments made on YouTube to be viewable only in their domain. They will see a warning alerting them to the fact that their comments will be public:Similarly, Google Apps admins will no longer be be able to restrict YouTube comments to be viewable only in their domain by default.

Note: These changes will not impact any existing comments that have already been shared to Google+ or that have been shared privately. Those existing private comments and posts will stay private. These changes will only impact new comments on YouTube that are made going forward.
