Icons belong to their owners and are shown for reference. This is not an endorsement, and the files are not a license to use the mark.

A YouTube favicon search is usually someone replacing a blank tab icon, or checking whether the site still ships a multi-size .ico. The files here came from youtube.com. YouTube owns the mark. It is shown for reference, not as a logo to reuse.

How this compares with a normal favicon set

A site you publish yourself usually needs a different set from the one YouTube happens to ship: 16×16, 32×32 and 48×48 in one favicon.ico, a 180×180 apple-touch icon, and 192×192 plus 512×512 manifest PNGs. That chart, including 96×96, maskable icons, Windows tiles and SVG, is the favicon dimensions guide. Use YouTube’s files as a reference, then build your own with the PNG to favicon converter.
