Linus Tech Tips Hacked

[SmokersCave]

Lowkey scary that a tech channel like Linus can get hacked not only that his whole other channel and also google is so vulnerable

[jbbresers]

Colton is really getting fired this time 😢

Update: From what I can see, the affected channels are no longer visible, meaning that they must've also been terminated, like the main channel.

Kind of scary how this happened to such a big channel, hopefully linus gets his channel back soon

[aaryananand]

I watched the entire thing unfold real time and saw each channel go down one by one. I got no words…

Props to the viewers who donated to warn other viewers not to click the links!

As of now, His main channel had been terminated. All of his secondary channels are still up and have been changed to Tesla. Hopefully YouTube can fix the issue.

15 million people could've gotten hacked by the live stream
I love the superchat mates, they're preventing hacks

Colton: "I don't think this is gonna be a joke anymore."

I know that due to the size of Linus Media Group, YouTube will step in sooner or later, but it's still crazy to watch it happen in real time

I'm looking forward to LTT starting an excellent series or channel on cybersecurity.

It's long past time that Google lets youtube Channels be tied to Google Workspace accounts with proper limited admin roles. It's a joke that it every thing runs through a normal gmail account.

It was Denise. It's always Denise. I hope they recover soon though. That's just scary

[FTFEOfficial]

Lol you can see my superchat in this short!

[FatherManus]

Whoever works for LTT and clicked on that link is 100% getting fired. Linus is going to lose his shit.

[TeoBranzell]

LTT has been transferring passwords to a new password manager for the past couple of weeks (I know it as they've discussed it on the Wan Show) So, part of the reason why they were hacked could have been that something went terribly wrong during the transition?

[noam]

"LMG clips" still operational. Hope they post updates there as well as the forum

[sucio-]

The biggest defense is training. Damn man sucks to seen linus getting attacked he’s a saint of the platform

[Hahapotatoes]

Was putting my computer together last night and left the video open and came back to seeing the video unavailable now. Hopefully they get their stuff back.

Update #2: All of the affected channels have been reinstated and are back up. Everything should be back to normal now. Welcome back, Linus :)
