Internet users in other countries, including the United Kingdom, Mexico, Brazil and Italy, have also reported that Twitter is not working. The cause of the failure has not yet been specified by the group.
The service seems to have gradually resumed a little more than half an hour after the start of the outage, with Internet users taking the opportunity to gently poke fun at the network. “I just had the most productive 30 minutes in years. And if not, it looks like Twitter went down for 30 minutes“Wrote on the @joelyagar platform. Outages regularly disrupt digital platforms, with long service interruptions remaining the exception.
This technical hitch comes at a sensitive time for the group, which this week entered into a legal battle with Elon Musk. Twitter wants to force the multi-billionaire to honor the agreement he signed in April, when he announced his intention to buy the platform for 44 billion dollars, before withdrawing last week.
