On Aug. 12, X owner Elon Musk said there appeared to be a massive distributed denial-of-service (DDOS) attack on the micro-blogging platform, “working on shutting it down.”

A DDOS attack aims to disrupt a website or service by flooding the network with spurious traffic in an effort to prevent users from accessing the site.

“As this massive attack illustrates, there’s a lot of opposition to people just hearing what president Trump has to say and so, but I’m honored to have this conversation,” he said.
