And nothing of value was lost.
Oh no.
Anyway…
But wait, isn’t this some sort of official government communication channel now? Sure there must be uptime agreements and penalties for such a thing, right? Right?!?
Oh, so that was it?

I hadn't noticed.
Good. Sadly it was fixed.

Looks like annonomus is saying they took it down.
And the owner wants to "automate" the US government with AI.
The idiots are in charge.
The US are truly turning into a real-life version of "Idiocracy". I'm just waiting for Trump's orders to start watering crops with Gatorade

Using devices inside the country to DoS Twitter will give them an excuse to cry domestic cyber terrorism, and using devices from outside the country will give them an opportunity to justify creating an American equivalent of China's Great Firewall.

Let it burn! It's not our problem.
Half an hour is still pretty huge for a site like Xitter.
