Elon Musk’s X, formally known as Twitter, has been hit by a major outage plaguing users nationwide.
The platform, which Musk purchased for $44 billion, went down around 2:30pm ET as users noticed the app and website are not working.
Downdetector, a site that monitors online outages, shows the outage is largely hitting the eastern half of the US.
By 3pm, over 50,000 X users had reported a problem to the outage-monitoring website.
Although the problems appeared to start in the east, the biggest trouble zones are now centered in major Midwest cities like Dallas, Chicago, and Minneapolis.
This is a developing story… More updates to come.
