The disinformation medium X is down. For anyone lacking disinformation, The Kremlin can still be reached by fax machine.
@randahl Confirming down here in Canada too.
@alexblock @randahl
Kosovo, Balkans, can confirm its been down for more than 3 hours.

@randahl

Down globally. I wonder if it's a DDOS.

@BobC7000 @randahl Nahh. Just a server croaking and no one left who understands what it did or how to replace it, probably.

@ArtHarg @randahl

It's global though

@BobC7000 @randahl Cascading failure would do that.

@ArtHarg @randahl

Has to be a cascading catastrophic error for sure if it's not being caused by something coordinated externally

@ArtHarg @BobC7000 @randahl
these guys are running the u.s. government.
@BobC7000 @randahl Maybe Anonymous woke up? Can’t imagine China or Russia spoiling a perfectly good train crash.
@BobC7000 @ArtHarg @randahl
This is that poem right?
- But I couldn't care less because I wasn't a nazi. The end.
@randahl here’s hoping someone did it to them. Although given how it’s run, it’s probably a self-own.

@daedalean @randahl

I don't. Then they'll blame the Democrats. Why the democrats would take down an obviously neutral, fact based, free speech zone, I'll never understand. (/s)

But how beautiful would it be if it's down because the idiots just don't know WTF they're doing?

😁✌🏻

@DoNotPunchDown @randahl they’ll blame the democrats for anything anyway.
@randahl Not reassuring for us being told, let Elon do to our government what he did to Twitter. He fired half the staff and it's fine.

@randahl

You win the internet today! :-D

@randahl
Yea, that'd also solve those internet censorship demands some voiced recently. Hope they don't get it running again.
@randahl Unfortunately, this is a disinformation. ;D
@viennawriter x is loading since then on my device. I tend to believe the fax-thingie too, until otherwise is proven @randahl

@randahl

Not a joke, it is down indeed.

Meanwhile, I’m posting on fascist free Mastodon and life is good.

@randahl
Isn’t ex-twitter behind Cloudflare?
DDoS should be much of a problem then.
(or others should be affected, too)
So probably more a problem located in Muskistan.
@randahl
Some sources say the hack was sponsored by Heritage Foundation itself.
"Our investments are at stake here. Just make him STFU, we'll kill and dissolve him later."
@randahl confirmed for germany , #goodnews for humankind. Every second it is down it cannot spread hate and disinformation *thumbs up* #xisdown
X users report widespread outage on social media site

Social media users from around the world, including Canada, the United States, Europe and Asia, reported the platform either being slow to load or entirely inaccessible.

Global News
@randahl Twitter. You should call it Twitter.
Alejandra Caraballo (@esqueer.net)

Twitter is completely down and the price of Tesla is in full collapse. It's a bad day for Elon.

Bluesky Social
@randahl We've been given few hours of sanity 🙏 🥂
@randahl ahhh, that's why xcancel.com was giving me 503s earlier. I thought my IP got blocked or something. Good to know
@randahl Saw that Tesla stock was down about $100B. 14% today on mkt cap of $732B. Down $200B from start of year. Hope Musk is having fun, costing his investors and losing money
@cashowitz @randahl Anyone invested in any Musk venture should lose every penny.
@randahl fax is the most secure digital transfer method, still
@randahl That's why in #Germany we still use #fax
😁
@randahl gosh I hope Trump social is down too
@randahl Or, via the White House press secretary.
@randahl @BorrisInABox There is also a ppigeon mail, provided the birds do not freeze as they approach their destination.

@randahl

If you consider platform X to be a source of disinformation, why do you continue to access it?

The day I realized that X was not meeting my expectations, I simply closed my account and stopped accessing it.

🤨

@gustavo_rezende because it is my job to be informed and comment on what is going on in this world.

But I applaud everyone who gets off X, I do not post on X, and I hope the platform dies.

@randahl Telegram was right there !!
@randahl Que blaming it all on Ukraine
@randahl @jwz or for the latest propaganda, the White House hotline is always open to import the latest Putinews.
