US: Elon Musk has blamed a “massive DDOS attack” for interrupting his much-awaited interview with United States Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and causing a long delay. The interview was livestreamed on Musk’s social media platform, X, formerly known as Twitter, and was scheduled to begin at 8 pm EST (midnight GMT). However, several users reported that they were unable to access the chat, prompting Musk to pause it for several minutes. In the interview, Musk bantered with the former president in a friendly manner on issues such as immigration and the US economy. Trump, who returned to the platform after a year, made several unfounded claims that were not challenged by Musk, who had previously endorsed the Republican for the upcoming November elections. The tech billionaire reinstated Trump’s account in 2022, nearly two years after it was “indefinitely suspended” by the platform’s previous management for “inciting violence”. Since then, about 20 million people have listened to the recording of this conversation, according to data released by X. Here’s what you need to know about this glitch:
