I became aware of the disruption via this tweet from Enganget and was unable to access YouTube content during a test.
Engadget has made an article here. The website allestoerungen.de/downdetector.com shows that the failure happened on November 12th, 2020 shortly after midnight (CET), but the disruption is already fading away.
On the first attempt, the website remained empty – currently, however, the videos return an error when trying to retrieve them. The YouTube team has confirmed the error in this tweet.
