Youtube channels got hacked by Litecoin Foundation?

DwarF760

Soo i have a tradition of viewing Brothgars Youtube channel after i come home from work, But i haven´t seen any videos for the last week or so..

so i did some "research and saw a live feed from a channel i was subscribing to called Litecoin Foundation. 

After some more research it turns out this "company"? have taken over(hacked) a bunch of Youtube channels removed all their videos and posted their own stuff on them..

Youtube knows apparently about this but i haven't read anything about it anywhere

Its not Litecoin Fundation that hacked it...
A hacker would be utter stupid to hack something and give an obvious link back to themselves.

The hackers is someone that renamed the channel to that to try to use the name for probably financial gain.
They would probably put some sort of video about pay us to get litecoin for cheaper than usual or something like that in Litecoin Fundations name.
but the hackers definitely isnt Litecoin Fundation.

It matters that you don't just give up.”
