Google's Reputation Just Got 'Tea Bagged'

Developer Chad Upton discovered recently that Google's YouTube video player is loaded with some COLORFUL DEBUG STATEMENTS. The language is invisible to users (unless they load free software mentioned on the linked page), but buried in every single YouTube page. Comments include gems such as "F**k bandwidth detection script its taking too long or not working so f**k it hard," "HACK HACK HACK HACK HACK this scuks," and my personal favorite, "The connection just got tea bagged" -- a developer term I was not familiar with.

Hmm. Looks like he's saying he's seen those statements in *other* players -- not YouTube. He only came up with the two that he shows from YouTube that aren't nearly as bad.
