Many users in the US and Japan have experienced problems accessing Twitter. In Italy isolated cases and only for a few hours
After #WhatsAppDown, today is the turn of Twitter down. Since this afternoon, the microblogging platform is unreachable in most of the world, sending in total discomfort thousands of users who use Twitter every day to express their thoughts on TV programs or to twitter with their friends.
The first inconveniences were recorded just after lunch and then the problem has spread like wildfire. In Italy Twitter down has not affected a large number of people, but in the United States, Britain and Japan are hundreds of thousands of users who can not access their account. For the moment, the staff of the social platform has not released any kind of information and we do not know the reason why it is inaccessible. From the first information coming from the other side of the ocean, the problem could be caused by an extraordinary maintenance to the servers of the social network or by a human error that has sent the microblogging platform into a state of tilt.
#twitterdown among the most used hashtags
Fortuit of fate, on Twitter the hashtag #Twitterdown has become one of the most used of the day, entering the daily trending topic. With the passing of the hours the situation in Italy is returning to normal, while there are still problems in North America and Great Britain. The problem with the servers of the microblogging platform could also have been caused by an extraordinary work to contain some hacker attacks or to repair some flaws and prevent possible problems in WannaCry style. In the coming hours the situation should return to normal and probably Twitter will explain the cause of the problem.
