Original Note:
A source at X confirmed that there was no DDOS attack, while another X employee said "99% chance Elon was lying" about DDOS attack. A DDOS attack would have crippled other X services, but only that Trump livestream was affected. Other X services were running fine. https://www.theverge.com/2024/8/12/24219121/donald-trump-elon-musk-interview-x-twitter-crashes https://www.techarp.com/internet/musk-trump-interview-ddos-attack/
