YouTube全球多地突发服务中断 数小时后宣布完全修复

当地时间2月17日晚间，全球知名视频平台YouTube发生大规模服务中断，美国、加拿大、印度、菲律宾、澳大利亚及俄罗斯等多国用户均报告无法正常访问。此次故障始于美国东部时间晚8时左右，故障追踪网站Downdetector收到的相关报告一度飙升至33.8万宗。

故障期间，大量用户反映无法访问YouTube网站主页及移动应用程序。部分用户在服务逐步恢复过程中表示，虽可加载主页，但推荐视频列表无法正常显示。同期，谷歌搜索及Google Home助理等服务也出现短暂访问问题。

YouTube团队在社交媒体X上承认了服务异常，并于故障初期指出其推荐系统存在技术问题。经过数小时抢修，团队于美国东部时间晚10时12分正式宣布，问题已得到完全解决，平台服务全面恢复正常。此次中断的具体技术原因尚未公布。

YouTube was down for thousands of users in the US
It was also down in some other countries.
YouTube is experiencing an outage across the United States, with users in other countries like Canada, India, the Philippines, Australia and Russia also having problems with accessing the website. The issue seems to have started at around 8 PM Eastern time and reached 338,000 reports on Downdetector before starting to taper down. More users reported having issues accessing the app, but I personally lost access to the web homepage first.
As of 9:22 PM, users are still reporting being unable to access YouTube on Reddit. As of 9:33 PM, users are complaining that they still can’t access the service, though others say it’s back up for them. Some people are reporting partial restoration of service, with the homepage now being accessible but not seeing any recommended videos.
Downdetector also got thousands of reports of Google being down at around 8 PM Eastern time. As of 9:53 PM, Engadget Managing Editor Cherlynn Low reports that both YouTube and Google Home Assistant are still inaccessible for her. As of 10:12PM Eastern, Team YouTube posted on X that the issue has been completely fixed. While it didn’t say why YouTube went down, the team acknowledged the problem before 9PM and posted an update 20 minutes later that its recommendation system was having issues, even though its homepage was back.
