Musk blames ‘massive cyberattack’ for X outage

Elon Musk said his social media platform X was targeted in a “massive cyberattack” on Monday, prompting outages for thousands of users.

“There was (still is) a massive cyberattack against X,” Musk wrote on the platform Monday afternoon. “We get attacked every day, but this was done with a lot of resources. Either a large, coordinated group and/or a country is involved. Tracing…”

"Massive cyberattack" is quite the stretch but Musk has made a massive amount of enemies, including in his own companies, much more massive than this minor cyberattack.

Something's Gotta Give. We May See An "Et Tu, Brute?" Moment.

President Donald Trump reportedly intervened in the ongoing feud between Steve Bannon and Elon Musk, asking his former chief strategist to dial back his attacks on the billionaire.

Rep. Jamie Raskin: "Really, if we were censuring anyone, it should've been Donald Trump, who I don't think had been back to our chamber since he incited a violence insurrection against us. And then he used his pulpit in order to call a sitting member of the Senate 'Pocahontas.'"

Americans are sorry.

Flying back to Canada from Europe, I find myself seated next to a gentleman with an army bag. I always greet soldiers. So, I introduce myself, ask where he’s from, what he does.

He’s with the U.S. Air Force. He doesn’t share much—perhaps mindful of what could be misconstrued.

I thank him for his service.

He asks my name and where I’m from.

“Canada,” I say, proudly.

He looks down for a moment, then says softly, “I’m sorry.”

“Thank you for that,” I reply. “We’ll handle it just fine.”
