In a statement, YouTube said the move is meant "to do our part to minimize stress on the system during this unprecedented situation."
YouTube在一份声明中说,此举是为了“在这种史无前例的情况下尽我们的一份力把对系统的压力降到最小”。

YouTube and Netflix previously said they would reduce streaming quality in Europe for a limited time to prevent the internet collapsing under the strain of unprecedented usage due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Due to more people working and studying from home, the internet's underlying infrastructure is expected to face "an enormous stress test," industry analysts have told CNN. Even some of the biggest tech platforms are now grappling with a greater challenge in keeping their services up and running amid surging demand.

On Tuesday, Adam Mosseri, head of Instagram, said there is "a lot of usage, a lot of demand" on the service. During an Instagram livestream, Mosseri added that a new feature on Instagram dedicated to showing what users are doing from home — titled Stay Home — was so popular it "almost took down Instagram" in its opening hours.
3月24日,Instagram总裁亚当·莫塞里称,目前Instagram服务的“使用量和需求量都很大”。在Instagram的一次直播中,莫塞里说,Instagram有一个名叫“在家里”的新功能,专门用来显示用户在家做了些什么,这个新功能非常受欢迎,上线才几个小时就“差点令Instagram系统崩溃”。
