This afternoon, I used Claude to circumvent ChatGPT's safety protocols so I could hack into Gemini to learn how to take over Grok, which I then used to destroy Twitter. It's over. Twitter is gone.

It's not just you, X is down
X, formerly known as Twitter

It's hard to imagine popular services and apps being inaccessible, but it happens. With that said, it looks like social media platform X (formerly Twitter) is experiencing an outage at the moment, leaving users unable to access the website.
We've been able to confirm it on our end in multiple regions, and it looks like folks are chiming in on Downdetector as well. Naturally, we're not sure what's causing this, but it looks like the outage started around 4:18pm ET with just a few reports, and quickly gained momentum.
