Musk-Trump Interview on X Spaces Hit by DDoS Attack, Causing Technical Issues
Aug 13, 2024, 12:13 AM
A highly anticipated live interview between Elon Musk and Donald Trump on X (formerly Twitter) faced significant technical difficulties, preventing many users from accessing the event. The issues were attributed to a massive Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack on the platform, as reported by Elon Musk. The attack disrupted the audio stream, and many users received a 'Space not available' message when attempting to join. Despite these challenges, Musk indicated efforts were underway to address the technical problems, including potentially proceeding with a smaller number of live listeners and posting the conversation later. The incident highlighted server limitations of X Spaces.
