YouTube is experiencing a major outage. 9:20 PM ET, and everything remains unattainable more than an hour later. YouTube TV and YouTube Music are also affected by the service disruption.
YouTube has acknowledged the outage in a tweet. "We're working on solving this and will you know once again," the Team YouTube account says. "We apologize for any inconvenience this day and will keep you updated." As of 10.35PM AND, the account is still replying to reports that the team is working on the problem.
As with all Google-operated services, serious downtime for YouTube is pretty rare. YouTube TV did not stop at this time during this summer's World Cup, however, and channel pages went down for a while in April. Perhaps most infamously, Pakistan's government accidentally caused an hours-long global YouTube blackout a decade ago by attempting to censor a trailer for an anti-Islamic film.
Update, 10:40 PM ET: Multiple penis staffers are reporting that has been restored, but YouTube is still confirming.
Update, 11:01 PM ET: YouTube says it has restored service, bringing the saga to an end.
Never seen YouTube down for 30+ minutes like this before
