    18 minutes after the conversation was supposed to begin, Musk claimed that X was the target of a “massive DDOS attack” that had made it impossible for the Space to proceed as planned.

    The rest of X appears to be working normally, however, and a source at the company confirmed to The Verge that there wasn’t actually a denial-of-service attack. Another X staffer said there was a “99 percent” chance Elon was lying about an attack.

    • when it's just three nerds in Ohio trying out that Giant Space Laser program from 20 years ago.face_melter
    • I wouldn’t trust an anonymous staffer. Tech companies are full of people who don’t know anything but think they know everything
      ********
    • Of course, it’s irrelevant. The thing didn’t work, one way or the other. Shitty tech.
      ********
    • He's become the richest troll in the world. It's a shame.wagshaft
    • Donald Trump Doesn’t Need X—but Elon Musk Desperately Needs Him Back
      Musk’s stagnating platform has been hemorrhaging users and advertisers for years.

    • No it hasn’t. What’s stagnated is the corporate press because more people are listening to podcasts and independent media.IRNlun6
    • At this point anyone who remotely considers the news to be real information is hopelessly confused.IRNlun6
    • When you have major networks and all their little satellite companies parroting the same information verbatim you don’t anything near resembling reliable news.IRNlun6
    • following your logic here .. the hamas terrorist attack on oct. 7, i saw on the tv is not real information... got it.. sounds more like u are making up lies.neverscared
    • but hey now i have u as a reliable news agent. and iam not confused anymore....tell me more...neverscared
    • u cant just talk any stuff u want on major news either... even the worst outlet like fox news had to pay up after tucker carlsons lies...neverscared
    • That’s an illogical and absurd comparison. When I mention the corporate press vs podcasts/independent media it’s clearly a distinction of controlling interests.IRNlun6
    • Just because a news outlet reports on an earthquake or terrorist attack doesn’t discount the political or advertisement influence on news media.IRNlun6
    • FFS they had nearly half the country believing Joe Biden was sharp as a tack. You needed the media to figure that out? You believe their surprise?IRNlun6
