In a tweet, YouTube said it was working on resolving the issues on YouTube, YouTube TV, and YouTube Music.

Update: The issue has been resolved.

    And the response is to have every /. user go to YouTube to see if it is really down.

    (It is.)

    I think the most shocking part of this is that we're seeing a Slashdot article about it now instead of two days later.

    I kid, but it's probably because the editors couldn't watch their cat videos and had to do something productive for a change.
