Compliance with public health measures, such as restrictions on movement andsocialization, is paramount in limiting the spread of diseases such as thesevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (also referred to as COVID-19).Although large population datasets, such as phone-based mobility data, mayprovide some glimpse into such compliance, it is often proprietary, and may notbe available for all locales. In this work, we examine the usefulness of videosharing on social media as a proxy of the amount of time Internet users spendat home. In particular, we focus on the number of people sharing YouTube videoson Twitter before and during COVID-19 lockdown measures were imposed by 109countries. We find that the media sharing behavior differs widely betweencountries, in some having immediate response to the lockdown decrees - mostlyby increasing the sharing volume dramatically - while in others having asubstantial lag. We confirm that these insights correlate strongly withmobility, as measured using phone data. Finally, we illustrate that both mediasharing and mobility behaviors change more drastically around mandatedlockdowns, and less so around more lax recommendations. We make the mediasharing volume data available to the research community for continuedmonitoring of behavior change around public health measures.
