I get a mostly empty page with a lot of pro-SJW stuff, which is the opposite of what I normally get. Not enough Clapton.

Sad! Pichai monkey working on it.

Youtube-dl is also not working surprisingly. It's crazy how I still assumed it was my network and not youtube. Speaks to how much I depend and rely on youtube being available as a staple in my life. For me the error just says webpage is unavailable. I am in NJ so east coast has a large outage probably.

Ha I thought my Chrome had some hanging process that resulted in js engine error. So I switched to Safari and same error...

I have never seen Youtube not work. Ever. This is a special moment. Glad you are all here to share it with me :)

I am proud to say that in 2008 my country knocked this puny website off the interwebs in a bid to censor it within the country. They accidentally hijacked the global IP addresses[0] I am also proud to say that my country left the domain for their original Internet Exchange Point[1] unregistered. Guess who scooped it up? PS. My country is Pakistan. [0]: https://www.cnet.com/news/how-pakistan-knocked-youtube-offli... […

> Guess who scooped it up?

This is the best domain squatting I've seen.

Suddenly I have nothing to do at home..

Not me, I watch netflix, read HN while playing PWI and tinking with my Amiga CNet BBS running inside WinUAE.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is any of this info publicly available anywhere?

IX charts are public in Chile by law. Everything looks well except the Telefonica (TIWS) international trunk [1]. It started dropping all traffic at the same time. [1] http://pit.grupogtd.com/default.php?id=1

TIWS is back online. I'd presume they are draining most traffic to prevent overload according to the public SRE practices. I theorize it should take a few minutes to get everyone back in.
