Social media platform X down for second time

Social media platform X, owned by the world's richest man Elon Musk, went down again for the second time on Monday night. The second outage occurred around 7:15 pm on Monday, with complaints rising over 700.

According to downdetector, more than 20,000 reports about outage appeared in US while the numbers crossed 10,000 in UK. X has hitherto not responded to the issue. Elon Musk bought Twitter in 2022 and rebranded it as X. Musk deftly used his behemoth social media platform to change tides in the latest US elections.
