You weren't the only one, I clicked on it too, as did thousands of others, before finding a real stream
YouTube does a bad job of real time takedowns of spoofed live streams. You’d think for big events like this they would have somebody just standing by and monitoring social stuff so that things like this don’t happen.

Then again you'd think one of Amazon's 1.5M employees would have the job of finding fake USB sticks for sale on the site, but apparently nobody has that title either.

This implies that YT has humans that are not in sales. It feels like YT just has bots building more bots at this point.
