Elon Musk's X platform, which he acquired for $44 billion, is currently facing significant outages impacting thousands of users in major U.S. cities like New York and Los Angeles. Reports indicate difficulties with both the app and website, particularly around 3:45pm ET. Many users are experiencing blank newsfeeds and slow loading of recent posts. This technical breakdown coincides with Musk appearing publicly with a black eye, allegedly sustained during playful interaction with his young son; he humorously noted the force of a child's punch.
Users have flocked to Downdetector to share their frustrations about X being down, with many saying they have no access in Oregon, California, Utah and Arizona.
An outage map shows New York City, Dallas, Atlanta, Chicago, Seattle and Los Angeles are experiencing glitches with X.
The outage comes as Musk showed up to his Oval Office farewell with a black eye, claiming he received the injury from his five-year-old son X.
The world's richest man claimed they were 'horsing around and I told him to punch me in the face.'
