YouTube Is Down, Won't Play Videos [Update]
Alphabet's (NASDAQ: GOOG)(NASDAQ: GOOGL) YouTube appears to be bugging out for many users worldwide on Wednesday night.
The YouTube homepage appears to load just like normal and users can click on videos. However, the video remains a blank black screen. The issues began around 7 p.m. ET.
Unfortunately for users, advertisements still load like normal.
Interesting that YouTube is down. Doesn't matter what you want to watch, its down
