WASHINGTON: Twitter experienced a widespread but seemingly brief outage in the United States and parts of Europe on Thursday — fresh turbulence for the firm locked in a buyout battle with Elon Musk.
The Downdetector website showed that outage reports spiked in the United States around 8:00 am (1200 GMT), while users reported service interruptions in France and elsewhere.

However, by around 1245 GMT reports of outages to Downdetector were dropping off and users were back on the social media platform joking about the disruption.
Service disruptions on social media platforms happen periodically, but major and long-term service outages are not common.
