Yahoo Messenger blocks YouTube URLs

Jun 5, 2006

It seems that Yahoo Messenger removes all messages with youtube.com URLs in it. I was trying to send a link to a friend, and it never reached the other side. Even though Yahoo has a right to do whatever they want on their servers, this seems completely wrong.

That is true. I just figured it out when all messages with the youtube links in it are deleted or in other words, never delivered. That is not cool…

I share youtube.com links all the time on Y messenger. I just did it this morning.
