X Outage: Hacker Group Claims Responsibility, Sparking Mixed Reactions
Multiple outages affecting the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, occurred throughout Monday, beginning around 5:40 a.m. ET. These outages, reported globally, resulted in users’ inability to access posts and received error messages. While X experienced intermittent service restoration, a peak of 40,000 issue reports coincided with further outages. A hacking group, Dark Storm Team, claimed responsibility for a DDoS attack, prompting Elon Musk to acknowledge a “massive cyberattack” and investigations into its source.
