YouTube is down for many users

It’s not simply you: YouTube is down for several users.

The outage seems to be largely moving European users. YouTube is functioning fine for TNW writers stateside (though we’ve seen some intermittent outage), however multiple European employees members have gotten a ‘500 Internal Server Error’ message.

Downdetector shows that YouTube has been having intermittent problems since 9:47 AM ET – once more, focused around Europe – with reports spiking recently.

We’re contacting YouTube for a lot of info, and can update this post if we tend to hear back. within the meanwhile, you’ll ought to go elsewhere for your cat videos and punk AMVs.

Update 3:00 PM ET: Service currently seems to be fixed. Carry on.
