While trying to spectate a friend's live game (MatchID 38569442) the connection wouldn't fully form & I'd be left staring at this dialog box.

After a few attempts, and a sanity check of spectating a different random match successfully, attempting to spectate this or any other match would send me this message, which would not go away after a minute.

Pasting a few of the relevant console prints related to this error:
Once the match ended I was able to download and spectate the game, but the rate limit persists.
Update: A little over an hour after writing this post I am still rate limited, and completely unable to spectate any live matches anymore
