Has DF YouTube been hacked? : digitalfoundry


This is becoming super common. How they heck has youtube not stopped this yet? Massive channels are hacked, name is changed to look like "SpaceX," a recent thing is rebroadcasted, and the stream has a bitcoin wallet listed with instructions on how Musk will double your money or something stupid.

Saw this on Era this morning.

Pretty frustrating.

When I saw crypto scam, I honestly thought they were somehow using Google's servers to mine by reverse hacking youtube or something.
