In the morning of November 29, 2025, a specific hacking incident occurred on the ABS-CBN Entertainment YouTube Channel, leading to a particular cryptocurrency scam being live-streamed on the channel, along with the main Kapamilya Online Live streaming, in which, at that time, the replay of the most recent episodes from the Primetime Bida block was shown (citing that the service is streaming their well-beloved Kapamilya shows live and on a late-night/early-morning replay schedule).
The hacking incident also affects the official YouTube Channel of the network’s noontime show, It’s Showtime, which also posted the same cryptocurrency scam live stream. YouTube later terminated both channels for violating its Community Guidelines. ABS-CBN later responded on It’s Showtime via a social media post that it will temporarily stream today’s live broadcast on its Facebook page and later on iWant’s YouTube Channel, in addition to Kapuso Stream on GMA Network’s YouTube Channel. In contrast, It’s Showtime is broadcast on-air via Kapamilya Channel, A2Z, GMA, and ALLTV2.
While ABS-CBN and YouTube are currently working to restore the two channels, the tonight’s Live 2nd Eviction Night broadcast for Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab Edition 2.0 will continue to be streamed online on Kapamilya Online Live via iWant’s YouTube Channel (as a delayed airing), including TV Patrol Weekend, Rainbow Rumble, Your Face Sounds Familiar, the past episodes of Maalaala Mo Kaya, and many others.
The said YouTube Channel, including ABS-CBN News, will also serve as a temporary home for Kapamilya Online Live until YouTube restores its channel, which is also freely available for streaming via the iWant app and website for Kapamilya Channel live streaming and the network’s on-demand and exclusive content, and on ABS-CBN’s Facebook Page.
The ABS-CBN Entertainment YouTube Channel had over 54.3 million subscribers, the most of any channel in the Philippines and in Southeast Asia.
