Elon Musk has suffered a downfall after a series of incidents which has sparked numerous controversies about him. In addition, the outage of his X account has posed a difficult situation for him. According to sources, the account has been facing connectivity issues for the past few days. This issue, however, is not only faced by the high personality but also the other users. 

Issues arise from Elon Musk’s X outage.

As you know, X is a leading social media platform where people share their opinions on several public controversies. However, the app has had some technical issues due to which its server is not establishing a connection. The major setback for Elon Musk is that he replied to views on his controversies and his policies through X. Its outage has resulted him a huge amount of loss in his political career as well as his business. 

Due to inactivity, he lost the political territory of Wisconsin, and the sales of Tesla have dropped significantly. In addition, his earlier controversies regarding the involvement in DOGE and Trump’s administration have still not come to an end. They have intensified several-fold, especially after Elon Musk’s X outage. 

Public reaction to X’s outage

Reports of the app’s dysfunctionality have been recorded in thousands of numbers. The public is diverting its hate towards Elon Musk’s administration saying that servers of YouTube and many other platforms suffer from such outages for a short span as well as not as frequently as X. They are also popularizing the hashtag #ElonMuskResign on social media platforms. 

Antu-tesla movements are on the go and the matter has worsened when a 13% fall in the sales of Tesla was reported. The users are losing their trust on Elon Musk and his administration. On X’s outage, several risks arises such as security issues, data breach, data loss, and synchronisation issues which poses a tensed situation. 

On the other hand, the loss of elections in Wisconsin has also burdened Elon Musk with a warning alarm. Some people think that the ongoing trade war with China might also be a reason for such vast problems for Elon Musk. The loss of election means that the $20 million which was invested on Brad Schimel has been drowned. The policies which Elon Musk wanted to reinforce on winning the elections cannot be implemented now.

Downfall for Elon Musk?

All the areas where Elon Musk excelled are falling apart. Apart from the above mentioned issues, he also has found itself in high competition with China for the electric vehicles’ sale in the international market. Elon Musk has not only fallen in his industry right now but is also facing criticism throughout the world. This is because one of the controversies saying that he practiced the Nazi salute at Donald Trump’s inauguration which were denied firmly. 

The backlash has turned the public against Elon Musk and is vandalizing several Tesla car models to show their frustration. In addition to that, Trump’s administration backed out and revealed that Elon Musk is no longer a part of the White House. This has confused the public. Is this linked to the downfall of Elon Musk, or is it to distract the public from some big plans? Elon Musk’s international reputation is going down day by day. To regulate it, for some time, Elon Musk must shift to some other medium of communication, fix the system of X, and clear the controversies that claim his involvement in political affairs. 

Conclusion

A part of being famous and running multiple million-dollar businesses is that people will turn on you if you are facing a downfall. The market is ready to bring them down and thus, the competition must not die after reaching a peak point. Elon musk need to get together the pieces of the empire he has built to stand back on his feet.
