Elon Musk has claimed that the ongoing global outage affecting X, his social media platform, is due to a significant cyberattack rather than mere server issues. Musk speculated that this attack may involve a coordinated threat group or even a nation-state, emphasizing the unusual resources behind it. While reports of service disruptions surged on DownDetector, there has been no official update from Musk or X regarding service restoration. The platform has faced daily attacks, but Musk insists this incident is on a different scale. Controversies surrounding X have escalated since Musk's acquisition, impacting user trust.
