YouTube Is Down 152
A number of readers have noted that YouTube is currently giving back 400 and 502 http errors, and has apparently been doing so for an hour or more. I suggest you use this window of opportunity to get something done: the dancing kitties will still be there when you're done.

And in the UK.
So, basically, a single node in a CDN has gone down. Huge story, and /. has done well to be the first to (apparently) break it. 'Grats, Taco. ;)

Also in Southeast US (North Carolina) and it works fine for me.
It's back up, it was down from everywhere ... (Score:2, Informative)
I checked via ssh -D into four of my machines, two in the US, one in Europe and another in India.
Now, I didn't check from the HK boxes, but I assume it was down for real.
And btw, It's back up now for everyone.

root-server's records rather than Youtube? (Score:2, Informative)
I'd assume this is because of the root-server records being wonky for a while now, rather than Youtube itself:
