Search engines are increasingly simplifying the lives of users. And on November 30, 2017, Yandex decided to introduce us to its new brainchild.

Users of various devices on the Android OS (including “smart” TVs on this OS) when trying to launch one of the videos in the YouTube application (or the application itself) may encounter error 410 and the message “Network problems”.
