Original Story
Multiple outages suffered Monday by the social media platform X were the result of a “massive cyberattack,” said Elon Musk, the company’s owner.
“We get attacked every day, but this was done with a lot of resources. Either a large, coordinated group and/or a country is involved,” Musk said in part in a post on X.
More than 40,000 reports of an outage at X were received on Tuesday morning by DownDetector , a site that tracks online problem reports from users.
Many want to blame Russia but there are other likely candidates.
