Linus Tech Tips has been hacked on @YouTube Their channel was changed into a "Tesla Crypto Scam" and started Live Streaming. A very familiar Crypto Scam that has hit many creators on youtube. This is not going to be a good morning in Canada for the team.
@LinusTech
They Changed the Name of linus Tech Tips to "@temporaryhandle" and started running an @elonmusk bitcoin is back scam. Something we have seen many times before in the past few months on many channels that are very huge. @LinusTech I hope they get things worked out.
The Linus Tech tips hackers turned the chat into subscriber only mode and the nightbot was still selling merch. #linustechtips @LinusTech at least you might have gotten some money out of the deal.
Now @YouTube has banned Linus Tech Tips from the platform following user reports of a crypto scam. the 15 million subcriber channel just got taken out. @LinusTech will most likely get it back without any issues but it's crazy they got hacked like this.
It looks like another Linus Tech Tips @youtube account #techquickie is also compromised most likely because it's connected to the same google account. @LinusTech it's still streaming currently another crypto scam live.
Going live to talk about Linus Tech Tips getting hacked! It's still spreading to this other channels #linustechtips #hacked @LinusTech
Techquickie has now been banned on @youtube. it was another of the channels from Linus Tech Tips that was hacked. This probably means they have high level access to the entire google account. This is a major mess.
Linus Tech Tips channel @TechLinkedYT was also hacked. It is still online livestreaming on @youtube the same crypto scam. This is seemly a total own of the Media group.

Man The scammer at least made some superchat money on the @TechLinkedYT channel. people chatting in with superchats trying to at least make light of the worst situation that's happened to them. This is like crazy. The wan show this week is going to be nuts.
Now the @TechLinkedYT channel is Banned on @YouTube. We saw it going down live. This is a crazy sad day in the tech community. Now no one can trust his tech tips.
Looks like @linusgsebastian knows as about an hour ago that his media empire was hacked. Many prayers to a speedy recovery for our pirate friend. Argggg
Saved for the future.
Not sure what @Kirtaner is talking about but I'm sure glad I use a pihole.
