    Op assumed hacked because the error page implies that youtube's server maintenance crew consists of monkeys. But it's a joke that has been there for years.

    Meh, I wanna watch new feed the world but any video won't work for me either

    hackers killing youtube seems self defeating since it would essentially cut off their primary source of cat videos.

    "A team of trained monkeys" Well that explains a lot about Youtube's coding and why it has a tendency of fucking up uploads.

    I'm getting the same issue - it seems to be lasting longer than it usually does though. Usually this happens for like less than a minute...

    OP. Unfortunately you're incorrect. The error you're getting is because you have a toolbar active that is blocking access to youtube. Just fixed this on a clients computer. He had several of these useless toolbars.

    Youtube is working just fine.

    I don't have toolbars. My Youtube doesn't work either. Your point is moot.

    You're incorrect. If it was only the OP having the issue, you might be correct. Almost everyone is having this issue right now. So, unless there's some global hack thats forcing everyone to download a toolbar that blocks youtube... I'd say it's YouTube, not a toolbar.

    Not true. I have nothing of the sort installed and the youtube homepage is still displaying that error. If you follow links directly to videos though, it's fine.

    Yeah, the only 'toolbar' I have is the default Google thing that comes with Firefox.

    Youtube doesn't go down for maintenance though. They'd have a page for that.

    I've seen it over on a few websites not related to youtube, same message, but I was on my mac, so I thought it was an adobe flash related thing or something.
    Same message, monkeys and all.
    Whatev's though, it's tech, you're gonna have troubles now and then.
    Oh you guys and your life of now-tech. Franky says relax.

    Changed the thread title from a statement of a fact (that we don't know for a fact) to a question.

    It is really weird that it is down at this time of day; must be some critical hits to the infrastructure somewhere or something.

    Google seems to be alright.

    But honestly, I wish people would educate themselves on the messages that web servers give users of the internet (aside from the classic 404) so that they don't jump the gun like this.

    It's all the music I've been listening to all day. Stuck listening to the same song now.

    Strange for it to be down at this time.

    Ooooooooh goly~
