A representative for X did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
There have been several major service disruptions to X since Musk acquired the platform in 2022. The billionaire blamed a “massive cyberattack” for a series of outages last March. Dark Storm, a pro-Palestinian “hacktivist” group, took credit for the attack via the messaging app Telegram and to Bloomberg News.
The service also went offline for several hours in May, linked to a fire at a data centre in Oregon. X was also disrupted in November when cybersecurity firm Cloudflare Inc experienced a major network outage that hit a range of services. There also are periodic reports of smaller service disruptions.
Musk’s artificial intelligence company, xAI, bought X in March 2025. XAI merged with his space-exploration company SpaceX earlier this month.
