AT&T outage

My phone service didn't go out... I have AT&T... Did everyone else's phone service go out? You know me, I'm on the 4g 24/7 you'd think I'd notice my service being out...
Hym "Yeah, no I got a message from AT&T about the AT&T outage but my service never went out... Weird."

Great YouTube Outage

An event that took place on February 17th/18th, 2026, in which YouTube, YouTube TV, and YouTube Music went down for around half a million users.

Around 350,000 users reported issues accessing YouTube from 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST) on the 17th (1 a.m. on Wednesday 18th in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)), according to the unofficial, crowd-sourced site Downdetector. The most commonly reported problem was users saying they had issues using the YouTube app.

Around 10 p.m. EST (17/2/2026) equivalent to 3 a.m UTC (18/2/2026), YouTube confirmed the “issue has been fixed” across its platforms.

The event is named for the volume of users who the platform went down for.
