Updated February 16: It appears X is slowly restoring services globally, so be sure to check the website if you've been struggling to access it.
If you've been trying to log on to X.com in the last hour or so, you've likely been met with an error. That's because the website is experiencing a major outage that has knocked the platform offline.
If you try to access X or X Pro right now, you'll likely see an error that says the website cannot be reached, or you'll be stuck with a blank timeline. If you're using the app, you'll likely see your feed from earlier in the day, but attempting to load new content or engage with content will result in an error. Attempting to make any posts or send messages will also result in an error if you're in a region that's impacted by the outage.
X is yet to make a statement on the outage.
This isn't the first major outage X has experience in recent months. Not too long ago, a major Cloudfare outage impacted hundreds of websites from Uber to X, locking users out of those services.
X has come under fire recently for its Grok AI, which recently gained the ability to undress people using AI. The company was slow to address this problem, but the company now says that Grok should no longer be able to do this.
The feature sparked major backlash, and has caused governments in regions like the UK to consider blocking access to X / Grok. It's an example of AI being used for bad, and X is the first high-profile platform to allow such a feature to be readily accessible by the public. ChatGPT, Copilot, and other popular chat services often block these sort of requests.
