Social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, experienced widespread global outages lasting just over an hour on Thursday, disrupting the access of thousands of users. Downdetector.com, a service tracking online service outages, reported that more than 47,000 users in the US encountered difficulties accessing both X and X Pro.
