Comment(by mikeperry):

 FYI: Youtube.com has begun redirecting to accounts.google.com in some
 cases but not all (search results and video deeplinks seem to trigger it?)
 and using the redirect to automatically log you in to your google account
 on youtube...

 I'm not exactly a fan of that. We should find some way to prevent it.
