Oh, great. #YouTube thinks some large chunks of our #IPv6 ranges are creating unusual traffic.
The odd thing is that we have 2 large ipv6 ranges and at least two /64's ( one from each ) are blocked where other /64's are not.
And #ipv4 seems to be unaffected.
Looks like others are complaining about something similar at downdetector.com as well.
Looks like this is pretty widespread and maybe not #ipv6 related. Lots of people complaining on Reddit too.

@doachs It's been like this for me for MONTHS - every time I have to access anything owned by Google (which I don't do very often - #selfhosted life 😎), there's captcha.
I guess it's "to protect their community".
