**Vine**, the app for creating and sharing short **videos on Twitter**, has already been banned for minors due to the proliferation of explicit content.
Launched just a few days ago on the smartphones of many subscribers to Twitter, the app Vine, already sees its first changes in its terms of use.
Vine, useful for uploading videos to Twitter directly, allows you to share videos lasting a maximum of six seconds.
The novelty, introduced directly by Twitter’s CEO Dick Costolo, however, quickly got out of hand for the social network’s staff, as Vine’s arrival on the smartphones of subscribers has also generated the publication of mini-videos with overly explicit content.
There are not yet any filters or features that can stem the tide of hot videos, so for now, a restrictive rule has been applied to access Vine: the update to version 1.0.5 prohibits the download of Vine to minors under 17 years of age.
A measure that will probably have little effect and perhaps will limit the sharing of explicit images very little, also because it involves
self-certifying
that you are over 17 years old to proceed regularly.
Another deterrent is the introduction of features that allow you to report unwanted users or report content deemed inappropriate.
