WASHINGTON (AA) - X, the website formerly known as Twitter, is experiencing major disruptions worldwide Monday that owner and tech billionaire Elon Musk said were the result of a "major cyberattack" that could be the work of a state actor.
"There was (still is) a massive cyberattack against X," Musk wrote on the website. "We get attacked everyday, but this was done with a lot of resources. Either a large, coordinated group and/or a country is involved. Tracing..."
Users started to report outages around 5:30 a.m. Eastern Time (930 GMT), and while X was able to briefly restore service to most users just after an hour later, reports surged roughly three hours later, according to the DownDetector website.
X continues to be plagued by myriad problems including pages refusing to load, and timelines failing to reload.
The source of the hack remains unknown.
