Twitter down: Twitter back online after worldwide outage on Thursday morning

Twitter is back online, just over an hour after reported outages jumped from zero to 55,000 in a matter of minutes Thursday, according to the tech site Downdetector, the first service error since February, and a few days after the social media site filed a lawsuit against billionaire Elon Musk, who is attempting to back out of a deal to buy the site.

Some of you are having issues accessing Twitter and we’re working to get it back up and running for everyone. Thanks for sticking with us.
