Musk Twitter Attacked

The much-anticipated conversation between former President Trump and Elon Musk on the social platform X faced delays due to significant technical issues, which Musk attributed to a suspected cyberattack. Musk, who has publicly supported Trump in his 2024 presidential campaign, mentioned that the platform was experiencing a “massive DDOS attack,” causing interruptions in the live event. Despite the challenges, the conversation eventually commenced after a delay, with Musk acknowledging the difficulties and implying that the attack was an effort to prevent Trump’s message from being heard. Many users reported problems accessing the event, while others were left waiting with only background music. The incident drew comparisons to similar technical issues encountered by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis during his presidential campaign launch on the same platform.
