The social media platform, owned by Musk, has experienced its third outage in just a single day, with users around the globe reporting issues logging in and accessing the site. According to Downdetector, the first disruption was short-lived. However, the second outage saw over 40,000 reports from users unable to load the site, before the issue was quickly addressed. Later in the day, a third round of complaints emerged, indicating continued difficulties for users.

As the platform deals with these repeated outages, Musk’s comments suggest that the scale of the attack is more severe than typical disruptions, hinting at the possibility of a highly coordinated effort behind the scenes.
