X is down for many users right now, with hundreds reporting that the social media site is producing error messages and isn't working for them.
The issues started at around 8.02am ET / 1.02pm GMT, when a large spike in reports appeared on Downdetector in the US and UK. At the time of writing, those reports are at over 11,000 in the US and over 3,300 in the UK.
There's been no official confirmation yet from X about the issue, but we'll be bringing you all the updates here in this liveblog.
