00:00And we are live come on in come on in JLR investigates
00:06Twitter
00:07Major problems with Twitter in the last few days. Come on in come on in
00:13When the heck is going on with Twitter folks Twitter keeps going down down detector has whoa
00:19Shooting up through the roof of people not able to access Twitter and get on now
00:25I just checked now I can get on right now hour ago. I could not I
00:30Was able to get on in the middle of the night a little bit, but yesterday I wasn't able to get on there are
00:37Major problems going on with Twitter right now apparently folks and this is not being talked about
00:44They had a fire at one of their data centers in Oregon
00:50Thursday morning which caused major
00:53Disruptions I see a lot of people in the chat pile in pile in let's have a conversation about Twitter because I know what you
00:59All probably do the same thing. I do when I get up in the morning and check the news. I use Twitter
01:05I went on Twitter and I couldn't even log on Twitter. I'm like what in the heck is going on here
01:11But apparently people can start getting back on but it's off and on off and on off and on and now the media outlets are
01:18starting to report on
01:19Problems with Twitter could be a cyber attack to this could be an act of terrorism that happened in reference to this fire a
01:26Fire broke out Thursday morning at a data center a Twitter data center in Hillsboro, Oregon
01:33Oregon leased by Elon Musk's X
01:37For state forcing an extended response from emergency crews according to multiple sources
01:43Firefighters arrived at the Hillsboro Technology Park in
01:49suburb of Portland
01:51then
01:53Portland
01:55At around 1021 a.m. On Thursday morning to put out a fire
02:00They found a room with batteries that they deemed to be involved with the fire
02:05The fire did not spread to other parts of the building, but at that point it started causing disruptions
02:12Couldn't log on another thing I noticed about Twitter was all
02:16that
02:18You would see people's tweets like you would see somebody tweets
02:21But you can't see the actual tweet the contents of the tweet, which I thought was odd and strange
02:28You know, we depend on these social media platforms to get our news. I get my news on Twitter. I enjoy Twitter
02:33Twitter I think is the best invention ever
02:36for sure
02:38DailyMail has an article out Twitter is down
02:41Elon Musk's social look at this. Look at the down detector right here. So that's down detector
02:47That's a site where you can go to whenever your internet goes out or wherever social media platform goes out
02:53And according to down detector, you can see it just spiked up like crazy starting around
03:01It looks like 807 a.m
03:03It just started going up all the way up now
03:05It's starting to go back down but down detector the day before and the day before was the same thing
03:11It was it just shot up a lot of people can't get on Twitter
03:17Now we want to talk about this because you know, we know that Elon Musk is a target out there
03:21We know that Tesla's a target or could they have just had a terrible accident at their center that caused them to go down
03:29And they still haven't resolved the issue
03:32Down detector right there says that numerous people can't access Twitter. Can you access Twitter?
03:39Can any of you access Twitter? Good morning, everyone
03:43Come on in. I'm reading the comments
03:46Major problems at Twitter. So we're just gonna have a conversation for a bit. I'm covering true crime throughout the day
03:51I just thought this popped up and maybe you can relate maybe you can relate
03:56And maybe you can relate maybe you can't maybe you care maybe you don't I care because I use Twitter I don't like Facebook
04:04I don't think Facebook is um
04:07Suitable for just getting your news
04:09It's either YouTube or Google obviously articles and everything like that
04:13But Twitter man Twitter is like the real time Twitter is the best invention of the world. I think Twitter's
04:19Phenomenal, I don't even watch TV. I watch Twitter to see what's going on
04:23I get a lot of my news in my a lot of my sources from Twitter real time
04:27If you even just put in latest on Twitter Twitter's down
04:31Every 10 seconds someone is saying is Twitter down Twitter's down and people's tweets from hours ago are starting to pop up
04:39What in the heck happened here? Well, there's a lot of things that happened apparently
04:44Daily mail puts out an article and says Twitter is down Elon Musk's social media platform goes offline
04:51as thousands report problems
04:54X formerly known as Twitter has gone down for millions of users around the world
05:00With the website app and x pro all affected. What is x pro?
05:05Thousands of people reported problems in the UK as well as other countries all around the world
05:11It's bad news for Elon Musk
05:14After the social media platform experienced similar problems yesterday Friday
05:19Yesterday Friday
05:22Uh, there were also localized outages across much of America on Thursday
05:30more than
05:3111,000 users
05:33Recorded issues with the app in the UK with website tracker down detector
05:39In the US more than 25,000 reports of people not able to log on to Twitter
05:46Some people are saying it's fine now
05:48But there is problems and we're going to continue to read on what's going on because I think it's going to go out again
05:53Now you remember a couple months ago
05:55It went down and down and down and down a lot of times at the same time musk was getting
06:00People were firebombing teslas and everything like that. They thought it was a cyber attack a dd. What is it called a ddos?
06:07You know what i'm talking about like a service of the denial attack
06:10Apparently they had I think it's I think it's happening again
06:15Uh, it comes after a huge fire broke out at the data center in hillsborough technology park in oregon
06:22On thursday
06:24In a written statement to the local publication oregon live digital
06:29Realty said of the fire
06:31The incident is under control and the fire department has concluded. It's an off-site response
06:37All personnel were safely evacuated
06:40With no reported injuries talking about the twitter fire at the uh, the real hillsborough facility
06:46we continue to monitor the situation prioritizing the safety of our personnel the integrity of our
06:53facility in the
06:54minimizing customer impact
06:57It is not known if the outages are linked to the damage caused by the fire
07:03Twitter
07:05Users who jump ship to rival at blue sky, I guess people
07:09Jump to blue sky. I never been on blue sky. I don't know what blue sky is all about
07:13I think it's like an alternative to twitter but blue side blue side twitter kind of seen a little bit of partisan
07:19Like one side if you like predominantly lean to the right
07:23Uh, you're hanging out on twitter. And if you're on the left, you're hanging out on blue sky
07:28that seems like that's an alternative because people don't like elon musk because of his
07:32Uh doge involvement with doge and everything like that
07:37Users who jump ship to rival, uh blue sky took to the app on saturday to gloat about its poor performance
07:47Twitter is fully down again l m f a o wrote one user
07:54Twitter is down again for the second day
07:56Hey
07:58That app is cooked. So people on blue sky apparently are laughing about the situation blue skies that shows to me
08:04Could be something going on here some nefarious things going on
08:09The crash comes amid, uh amid a straw string of blood
08:15Those for elon musk
08:17They say including a political defeat in wisconsin a sharp decline in tesla stock value and growing criticism
08:24Over his government role and the so-called doge initiative doge
08:30But isn't musk leaving doge?
08:35So that's what's going on here that's according to
08:38Uh the daily mail now wire magazine comes out with a article
08:43Came out with an article about the fire that broke out
08:46at x
08:47Fire breaks out at data center leased by elon musk's ex
08:51The fire department said a room with batteries contributed to the blaze at a building leased by elon musk
08:58Type of batteries we looking at
09:01People are saying in the chat their ex are working. Welcome aboard
09:05That's good to hear
09:06For now, I guess I don't know my ex is fine. This can't be i'm reading the comments
09:13X not working in the uk see different places. It's working in different places. It's not
09:21I don't think uh
09:23Yeah, it's working for me right now
09:25Right before I came on it was not working, but people are like putting memes and everything up
09:30Every two seconds right now on twitter people are saying that it's down
09:34Right now
09:36Pop bass pop bass saying pop bass has 2 million followers
09:40On x twitter is currently down for many users. This came out 30 minutes ago daily loud. My twitter x is down right now
09:50Let's read on people are saying twitter's down twitter's not working what's happening with twitter what's going on
09:58What's going on
10:00Oregon live also has something about the fire, but let's go back to the fire
10:04Uh, maybe you know about this
10:06Maybe you don't a fire broke out thursday morning at a data center in hillsborough, oregon leased by elon musk's ex
10:12Forcing an extended response from emergency crews
10:16According to multiple sources who spoke with wired magazine
10:20The sources required anonymity as they aren't authorized to speak publicly about the company
10:26firefighters arrived at the hillsborough
10:29Technology park center in western portland oregon at 10 21
10:35according to the hillsborough fire and rescue
10:38Uh, they found a room with batteries that were deemed to be involved with the fire
10:42Pitch noted that the fire had not spread to other parts of the building but said the room in question was heavy heavy with smoke
10:50at 3 p.m
10:52So 10 11 12 1 2 3 5 hours later the crews were still on the scene
11:00See what i'm saying x did not
11:03Immediately respond to a request for comment
11:06by wired, but it could not be
11:09Learned whether service server operations at the data center had been affected by the incident
11:14But what ultimately happened was twitter got down
11:17twitter went down
11:19Uh before elon musk bought twitter the company had three data centers in sacramento portland and atlanta
11:27So we're educating ourselves a little bit here
11:29This ensured that if one data center went down traffic could be shifted to the other two
11:35And split so no single data center was overwhelmed
11:40Uh, it says around christmas eve 2022
11:44Musk shut down x's data center in sacramento in an effort to cut calls
11:49So now you're cutting down sacramento. Now. You're only leaving
11:53portland
11:55And atlanta as a data center
11:57The company experienced a major major outage in wake of the shutdown over the next six months
12:03The company moved more than two thousand five hundred and seventy three server racks from the sacramento facility
12:10To data centers in portland and atlanta according to internal documents. Hey, we're getting a little history here
12:17We're getting a little history about
12:19The data centers of twitter and all about it
12:22So now they got two data centers used to have three sacramento. They shut it down
12:26They put all their stuff up there in portland and atlanta
12:30So one on one side of the coast one on the other side of the coast
12:34In the portland area x appears to lease space from a building that has been linked to
12:40digital reality
12:42one of the world's largest developers of data centers
12:46Digital reality
12:47provides varying levels of
12:50Operating support at its sites which can have one or more tenants
12:54It's unclear if x shares this facility with other companies
13:00Ryan young the vice president of america's operation for digital
13:04Realty sent in a statement to wire on thursday evening that the fire
13:08Related incident at our pdx 11 facility had been contained
13:15And that the fire department had left
13:18All personnel were safely evacuated with no reported injuries
13:23We continue to monitor the situation
13:26Prioritizing the safety of our personnel and integrity of the facility and minimizing
13:31customer impact
13:33Batteries often function as a backup power source at data centers
13:40But lithium
13:42Varieties can be volatile and issues with upkeep and inadequate safety measures have contributed to costly
13:50blazes at data centers around the world
13:53the
13:54Hillsborough fire department spokesman says he could not recall any
13:58Previous fires involving batteries in the oregon region's many other data centers
14:05That is interesting. What are these batteries lithium batteries?
14:09What's going on here it affected twitter it's affecting all the users
14:13So twitter might be up where you're at
14:15But it's not up where a lot of people are at right now
14:19And it keeps going down and up down and up ever since this fire that occurred at its hillsborough
14:26oregon center right outside portland
14:29x's parent company
14:31Xai has taken criticism in recent months for its rapid expansion
14:36Of power capacity at a new data center in memphis which opened last year
14:41Coincidentally a guy got arrested because he was going to blow up that data center
14:46In memphis that we talked about that whack-a-doodle
14:49That was from tennessee. Remember he was about to uh, set off bombs at the the data center in memphis
14:55uh that facility
14:57Which musk names colossus
14:59Colossus
15:00Was built up
15:02At a breakneck speed to train xai's grok and other ai tools
15:08The company installed more than 30 methane powered gas turbines
15:12But because the turbines are temporary a federal permit for pollution control isn't required
15:19Which appears to exploit a loophole in the clean air act
15:24Now why are starting to get into you know?
15:26You know
15:28You know
15:29The environment and everything like that
15:32Uh, the facility has drawn widespread criticism from surrounding black and brown communities who are apparently exposed to large amounts of air pollution
15:41And industrial emissions from other facilities in the area
15:45so
15:46The question I have for all of you today
15:49Is this a targeted attack or not?
15:52At twitter's x's facility in hillsborough
15:58Oregon, which is right outside portland, oregon
16:02Now I go to down detector right now
16:06and it looks like
16:08The downness is starting to go down a little bit more
16:11Maybe we'll get this site up magnolia if we could actually get the actual site up
16:15I'll send this to you magnolia is running the chat doing a wonderful phenomenal job
16:21But we want to get this information out because
16:23again
16:25Yeah, I take the you know, I use x I enjoy x and it sucks to have this down
16:29I just want to keep everyone informed on why it could be down
16:33What's the problem going on with x today
16:37A lot of users want to know what's up
16:39So i'm going to i'm going to get up this down detector again for you shortly in the meantime
16:44I'm going to scour around see what other types of information we have
16:48about x being down
16:50this morning
16:52yahoo
16:53thousands
16:54Twitter's not working as thousands report issues the sun
16:59The sun has an article. Oh, by the way, there's some other stuff. Oh, let me just say fire
17:03They're talking about the fire at the x center
17:06They're saying the outage is spread all across the world
17:11Outage uh map heating up particularly in the uk
17:15The uk are uk friends
17:17I know a lot of people in the uk while people in the chat are saying it's up for them
17:22People in the uk are saying it's down a lot of people in the uk if you're from the uk
17:26Let us know if it's back
17:28yet
17:30Users have been affected by the outage said the app of the website won't load
17:36They have also reported receiving the same message that reads cannot retrieve posts at this time
17:43Please try again later
17:46People are furious
17:48A lot of people are furious here, so I want to share something else while i'm here
17:55besides the fire
17:58Now they're saying well yesterday it was down for an extended period of time and then it went away
18:03And then it creeped back up again
18:06People are saying try alternatives
18:09What's the alternative?
18:11Well, I see a lot of people in here
18:18There you go
18:19So that is the update from a down detector right here down detector says
18:24That it's starting to go uh back
18:28Maybe people are starting to get access again as people in the chat are saying they can get on
18:34twitter again
18:35So that's good, but we'll continue to monitor the situation
18:39For sure good morning everyone
18:42And I like oh it might be down again. I can't I can't move it
18:45seriously
18:47Let's see
18:49Let's see
18:52Uh
18:56It's down again for me no, I swear it's down I can't get on twitter
19:01Dude, I literally can't get on twitter right now
19:05It's down again
19:09Let me just make sure I can't get on it's spinning it's spinning it's spinning it's spinning
19:16Crazy can you get on it?
19:20People are like it's called x x twitter call it what you want. I call it twitter. I like twitter x sucks
19:25Because you can't even hashtag x
19:30You really can't let me just see for sure twitter
19:34Let me just put the word happy
19:35Sometimes I do testers and I know you know what happens when these things go down
19:40That um, I know you guys are all checking your internet connections and everyone blaming it on um
19:49Blaming it on your own internet
19:56Proof that x is not working. Oh
19:59Magnolia just informed me proof that x is not working is because
20:03We stream this live right now not working, right? It's working for some but not a lot
20:08But the point is like for us
20:11we um
20:12When we share this video out we share it on multiple platforms including x
20:17And i'm looking on the x right now and normally on x when we stream any live
20:23We got a lot of viewers in the chat and we ain't even getting
20:26We're not even hardly getting any viewers in the chat on the x platform on this
20:33Uh, it's only saying about 100 people are watching
20:37On x you see a lot of people in the chat here
20:41It proves our point
20:42Some people have access some doesn't now that affects it. Uh, twitter's bottom line, right? They got to go
20:48Yours is not loading
20:51Mine just came back. See some people are saying it just came back
20:54People are saying so just share if it's up where you're at
20:57Or where it's not
20:59Nothing. Uh, yeah nothing here now again
21:02Mine is down in central california. Yeah share where you're at
21:06In the chat and just share, you know if it's up or down in your area
21:11It's definitely having loading problems here right now
21:15and another thing that was crazy was
21:18Even the search bar engine I noticed yesterday when it was up a little bit
21:23The search bar engine in the top right corner where you search a topic that vanished it was gone
21:29For me on my own site on you know
21:31And I had to go to the left side of the screen had to go down
21:34To the explore and open up the explore to be able to even do a search. There's certain things
21:40That are missing
21:42Weird weird times
21:46What does this all mean
21:49So
21:51Some people say it works some people say it doesn't
21:55I'm going to read the comments here a little bit
21:58Down detector has it down
22:00We're just gonna have a conversation a little bit more people are piling. Obviously this makes sense
22:06You didn't I bet you didn't know, um about the fire the fire that occurred
22:14It's working down in pennsylvania
22:16Yeah, share where you're from people are saying back up mine's working in central pennsylvania
22:22New mexico, no problem
22:24Mine is working
22:27California they're saying it's down
22:30Systems working here in arkansas working working in australia
22:38Down in new jersey utah down they say see what i'm saying it's hit or miss
22:43It's weird how that all works, but we're trying to understand this process a little bit
22:48On when it comes back up, I guess it comes back
22:51Sporadically in different areas like if it comes back up, it just doesn't say oh everybody it comes back up
22:56It seems like it comes back up in increments
22:59Or different areas i'm hearing right now down in kentucky. Ohio. It's up finland. It's working
23:05It's down here. Someone says someone else says it's down in south carolina
23:10It's down in south carolina working in colorado virginia, it's down see what I mean some states it's up
23:17Some states it's not working right for me right now in florida. I live on the west coast of florida
23:23It sucks though because when I search this I immediately search my internet I re I redo my router
23:29I even check my own internet service provider to see if they're down
23:33The blame game starts coming out, you know, and you go all over the place now
23:36Some people care some people don't but in this business for me covering the news
23:41I need twitter
23:43I would have a huge disadvantage of getting out that breaking news breaking news if we didn't have if twitter didn't exist
23:51This operation that we have on jlr investigates about getting stuff in real time would be much much harder
23:58So I depend on twitter I have zero problems with twitter i'm actually very grateful for twitter
24:04You know at one point a couple years ago
24:06Twitter kicked me off their platform for reasons. I don't even know because I don't really engage in anything negative in a sense
24:12I post stuff but I don't
24:14Go crazy, like some of these people do
24:17And they just said violating terms of service wouldn't give me a um
24:21Reason and anything I kept appeal and appeal and appeal and nothing nothing nothing and then musk bought
24:27twitter
24:28And then talked about amnesty of people that've been deplatformed off twitter, you know
24:32Just apply and everything like that and I apply and next thing I know a day later my twitter account's back
24:38I'm, like, oh my goodness
24:40So i'm very grateful for having even my twitter back
24:43But even when I didn't have it, I just set up another one, you know
24:46And another I had a smaller account whatever like that to start over but I was still using it to get the news
24:52But twitter
24:54I would say in the last three four months there has been numerous times
24:58Where the systems have been down?
25:01This is down detector right here
25:05I'm just getting up. It's 10 30. I got up a couple hours ago
25:09Uh, hopefully everyone has a great weekend. I'm going to see what else information I can share
25:13There might not be much more information to share other than it's down and i'm just kind of saying. Hey
25:19Where are you at? What's going on?
25:21And explaining the reasons now, this could be a cyber attack too. There could be things going on behind the scenes that they're not saying
25:30But they did have a fire and this stuff started happening again after the fire
25:36Twitter let me just see something about twitter fire here twitter fire
25:43Everything is down. Well, everything else is up
25:49They put a meme up there and twitter elon musk trying to fix
25:54Fix everything. Can you read me? Hello? Hello, we can see you
25:59wherever you're at
26:03The number of views is on par with youtube viewers are not even close to our views right now on um
26:12x
26:13We hardly getting any views on x right now
26:16So, you know a lot of times when it's down too. It also diverts everyone's mind and someone goes somewhere else
26:23Everyone just goes to another direction. I'm gonna find somewhere else to hang out with
26:27Uh, so twitter is trending right now
26:32So twitter
26:35Number one trend right now on twitter is so
26:39Twitter
26:45So twitter
26:47You know why because people are saying so twitter has me dropping tweets from a decade before I was born. Oh, that's another thing too
26:54It's weird
26:56when twitter's down or x
27:00People start getting their tweets and they're saying weird dates on their tweets
27:04like they'll say that you tweeted from this person's posting that they made tweets from
27:09December 31st 1969 like they're changing dates
27:16Somebody says so twitter is down. Maybe someone dropped the fully unredacted jeffrey epstein
27:22Files everyone comes up with crazy opinions here. So twitter is basically broken for everyone again today
27:32Share your twitter. Whoa, I can't even whoa. Whoa. Whoa. See this is what i'm talking about
27:36There is things going on with twitter right now. Now, you're only getting a few tweets on the topic and it's saying no more
27:43Like it's not giving you a lot right now
27:47It's hard to explain what i'm saying is if you put in twitter right now it may be up
27:52But if you put a topic in it's putting basically six tweets of that topic and it doesn't go no more
27:59There's definitely problems right now
28:01But it people are saying it's back up
28:03But it go and put a tweet in or put a topic in
28:07Just put any topic
28:09And what happens is the top?
28:11On that topic if you scroll down it's only going down one two, three
28:15Four five six and then for me it just stops
28:23This is why social meet people are putting comments and we're putting comments on the board
28:28here
28:29To find out what's going on twitter outage
28:32See a lot of people piling in like what the heck's going on with twitter
28:36I'm, just going to try to get a little bit more information so I can share with you and see if any media outlets have
28:41Actually did any news reports on twitter being down
28:46It's down
28:48Twitter there's a problem. There's a problem with twitter right now
28:52There's a problem
28:54for sure twitter is down
29:01But in my notifications I got four new notifications interesting
29:07Yeah, a lot of people are tagging me actually so people are tagging me that are watching
29:11this jlr investigates
29:13And uh showing how their stuff is like acting weird. They're showing like weird
29:20Stuff
29:21like they're showing a tweet for an example brian stelter from cnn or
29:26You know, whoever he works for now. I don't haven't heard from him in years the cnn guy, right?
29:32Brian stelter and they're showing a a tweet that he made
29:36from
29:371969
29:39Let me get this up. I'm going to send this over to you magnolia
29:42If we could get this up as an example of this 1969
29:47Twitter is making people's tweets appear as if they tweeted from december 31st
29:531969 why is it down could be cyber attack could be problem with their batteries?
29:59It's been down off and on now since thursday, so we're 48 hours into this
30:04Uh twitter's down stuff i'll keep this up here for a minute as I scour over the net
30:10To just put it in. I know some people in the chat. It's like it's called x
30:15It's called x
30:16See if you just put top and twitter
30:19It's still acting weird on my screen. It literally is acting so weird right now on my screen. Not much is going on here
30:27on a topic
30:29Any topic
30:30Any top i'll just put happy see the latest in the top of happy
30:35x is not working
30:37so
30:38This is a this is a place where you can vent and share your feelings about x some people care. Some people don't I would be
30:46Highly disappointed if twitter went down for good like if they announced that twitter was shutting down forever. I would be kicked off
30:54Because I like twitter. I think it's the best invention ever
30:58I think it's the real time gives you real stuff in real time, you know covering the ditty trial
31:02We're we're relying on journalists that are posting tweets to get that information in real time
31:08Twitter comes out faster than mainstream media though. Some of the mainstream media use twitter to get that information out
31:14But a lot of times with anything
31:18You're getting it on twitter first
31:21Inside job peggy says peggy says inside job, you know, you got employees are trying to purge the place
31:29Cost cut cut down employees. Could we have an inside job? Could there be a reason for this?
31:36Of what's happening?
31:37Not a peep from elon musk
31:39Let me just go to elon musk site because usually when this happened before elon musk straight out said that we've been
31:45There's a cyber attack. Let's see if he has to say anything about this
31:48I can't even load up. Well, yeah last time he tweeted
31:52It's weird because here's another thing
31:55Here's another thing about elon musk, you know, elon musk is on twitter like 24 7 365
32:02Like he's literally posting every couple hours. The last tweet elon musk did was a repost 15 hours ago. That is odd, too
32:13Usually he's every couple hours he's he's tweeting away so even twitter
32:18And we'll just put anybody who's a common twitter person that puts people uh tweets all the time
32:23What's a common account that tweets all the time? Let's see. Let's look at accounts
32:32Let's look at accounts like who's a common tweeter because a lot of people's tweets are coming up hours and hours ago
32:39So no one was able to tweet out
32:42SpaceX let's see what spacex spacex post a lot of things
32:46SpaceX look, that's what i'm saying like
32:50Yo, if you go to spacex right now
32:53Here, let me i'm gonna screenshot this and send this over to you magnolia. I just went to spacex
32:58twitter account
33:00And this is what happens when you go to spacex
33:06Send it over to you shortly
33:08It's just everything is acting weird my point is
33:13December 31st 1969 was a wednesday. It was the last day of the year
33:181969 this date is also sometimes referred to as a epic or origin date in computer programming. Thank you
33:25Imagine that i'll imagine that thank you for that insight
33:28see
33:29a lot of people's tweets right now say december 31st 1969 and
33:35uh
33:37We just got an explanation from it
33:40I'm going to look more into that
33:42Thank you for the insight. See you just provided some
33:46Really uh interesting things
33:49That's why this specific date comes up
33:53the origin date in computer programming
33:58All right, uh spill out what else you know about the situation what do you think's happening what's going on it's a place to share
34:08Uh twitter was film, um, i'm just reading the comments as they come through I sent something over to magnolia
34:13I should get that up on the screen shortly folks stand by I just want to show you an example what happens
34:17When you even go to some of these people's tweets it they're saying they haven't posted
34:23You're saying they haven't posted
34:26I like grok grok is interesting though. Um grok, uh, grok a lot of people. Um
34:33You know, uh, it's been it's been making its way across
34:37Twitter as far as you can ask information. It's like ai and it knows this stuff. Like I ask stuff about myself
34:45They say jlr, um, you know, uh, well, let me let me go grok
34:52Grok who is
34:56Let me just see i've done this before
35:00My grok isn't even working
35:08Things are coming up very very very slow right now
35:18SpaceX slow
35:21Come on in how's your ex doing? How's everything going in x world?
35:29That's what happens right here look on the right if you go to a specific site
35:34You might see that as if spacex with
35:38Millions of millions of followers hasn't posted
35:4139 million followers and they haven't posted. That's what i'm talking about
35:48So even though it might be up where you are
35:51Go to the site itself and see
35:54Because at various points it might come up and it might not come up as if and you have to keep refreshing and refreshing
36:04And it's slow as molasses even when I click on it right now to go on x it's going really really really slow
36:15Now what happens we've been so dependent off the internet what happens if we get the internet just goes
36:25What do you think would happen if the internet just
36:28totally vanished
36:30There would be big big problems, right?
36:33If the internet totally vanished
36:36And we have the internet oh there would be major major problems I would think right I would think so
36:45As long as it's fixed before the trial tuesday and we're talking about diddy
36:52I I agree on that
36:55We got the diddy trial coming up on uh, tuesday
36:58That's what we've been covering last couple days or yesterday. I actually was able to catch up on other things
37:05How about you how's everyone's weekend going, you know, this could be also a sign
37:11Just just get out and get some fresh air
37:14Get out of the house a little bit. Enjoy yourself. Spend some time with the family walk a pet
37:18Spend some time with your children your loved ones have a barbecue go swimming do some
37:23Nature stuff some shopping pay some bills get out a little bit. Maybe that's a sign for us to
37:30log off for a little bit
37:32And appreciate life
37:35Right, it's in the street because uh twitter goes down no if
37:39If if the internet goes down, which I feel you know
37:42We could have some sort of something one day where the internet is gone. How's everyone gonna act?
37:49If you log in and nothing
37:53That would be pretty crazy
37:56For real
37:57Mine is 100 in south carolina
38:01Uh pita just tweeted an hour ago to spray a new to your pets
38:05Why they tweet that?
38:08Remember bob barker from uh
38:11Bob barker make sure you have your pets spayed or neutered
38:16The price is right
38:20The price is right
38:23So, you know, I don't think there's anything else to really talk about this
38:28But I just wanted to jump on board and if it continues to go down
38:32We might have a discussion and talk about it a little bit later
38:37But something is definitely going on here
38:40And let's just hope it gets fixed. I don't believe in sabotage and cyber attacks. It's goofy people out there
38:48There's people out there want to do things for nefarious reasons or want to make a name to themselves
38:53Reminds me of my hacker days back in
38:56Uh in the 90s
38:59You know what i'm saying look we're just going to show the site here
39:03Down detector is great down detector gives you an option to check all the sites when things are down
39:09Occasionally facebook goes down
39:13But back in the back in the day in the in the early hacking days
39:19Used to hang out me on some of these, uh forums
39:23Like defcon in 2600
39:26Which were like hacker forums and everything like that
39:28And there'd be these hackers that would brag about taking people's websites down and companies or taking over people's 1-800
39:36toll-free number
39:38uh customer service lines and stuff and hackers used to just take it for for just to just to be a
39:43nuisance
39:45And they used to take over people's 809th like, you know, like, um,
39:50Any business like at&t they would take over at&t's entire customer service line. They'd shut down websites
39:56And then they would go on to the forums
39:59particularly defcon
40:01Defcon was like this hacker forum
40:03Organization group out of nevada that would have annual conferences and they would brag about it. So it's a culture. It's a culture
40:10It's a culture
40:13It's when I learned a lot about computers in the 90s particularly phone freaking
40:18But it still goes on I mean, you know you swatting was a big thing back then
40:22Oh my god, don't even get me started on swatting
40:26You heard about swatting and swatting happens all the time. But swatting literally was like
40:32I remember when swatting was new
40:34It was a new concept and people were literally doing it and it was so easy for people to do because they would just opt
40:38Divert their call and go through multiple switches through the phone networks and literally call 9-1-1 centers
40:44and make
40:45Police believe in the 9-1-1 center believe that there's a hostage situation going on or someone's house and these hackers would
40:51openly do it and they would call 9-1-1 and literally like
40:55Alter their voice and act like they're a girl screaming and saying oh my god
40:58Oh my god, I got a gun to my head and they got a gun to my head in the bathroom
41:02Hurry, hurry, hurry, and then police would call come over and they'd be like, oh my god
41:06Hurry, hurry, hurry, and then police would call come over
41:09But they would do it really crazy to some of these hackers hackers would do with the hacks
41:13The swatting stuff that you see and hear about on the tv really back in the day was really about hackers swatting other hackers
41:21Sentence, you know similar to sending pizzas to someone's house or plumbers or electric
41:26Electric people or shutting people's phone off their water their power and stuff like that. It was a big thing back then
41:33It's a big big big thing
41:36They're swatting
41:37but they would be like
41:39they would like really like
41:42It's really crazy back then like
41:45On like phone chats and everything like that a hacker will be on the phone
41:47Whatever like that talking to people in group chats
41:50And the next thing you know, you can hear in the background police busting into their home
41:54And telling them get your hands on the ground hands on the ground hands on the ground as if a swatting
41:59Thing was happening
42:00It's pretty crazy stuff that stuff was happening in the mid 90s. It was literally impossible to trace
42:06So hard I mean nowadays they could probably trace your call and trace the origins
42:10But back in the day you could use the jump switches because it'd be telephone switches when it went to 5ess
42:16and everything was switches and all these
42:18Networks and everything like that. You could opt divert through the operator going some switches
42:23Use a diverter and then go into a pbx
42:27And then go into another pbx back to an optivert next thing, you know
42:31You're jumping switches and then they don't even know the origins of the call it'd be literally impossible to trace
42:39All that stuff was happening back in the day and I was involved with all that stuff i'm not gonna lie
42:46Kind of forgetting back in my mind because it's been like over 20 years
42:51No, it's been longer than that 30 years
42:5395 2005 250. Yeah 30 years. Oh my goodness time flies
42:58Time flies. All right, so, um
43:01We'll leave it at that
43:03I don't know any other additional information that I could give about the twitter, but we had a conversation this morning
43:08It's a pretty good conversation
43:09Come on in share this video out and we'll stay with it. And if anything else breaks on this
43:16We will change uh share on jlr investigate to keep the comments coming and um
43:22You know if any other breaking news happens today, we're on it. We're sharing it
43:26Today we're on it for sure, but hopefully x is
43:30cooperating because we rely on x because usually x
43:34When things happening in real time like a shooting or mass shooting, we don't want mass shootings
43:39I do not like to cover these things. I like to been talking about other things lately
43:42Actually, i've been enjoying covering the diddy trial
43:45But if something else breaks and crazy we want twitter to be able to you know, get that information out
43:51and get the live streams up because
43:53Media is kind of slow on the weekends, too
43:56All right, folks. I'm gonna blow myself up make myself bigger remove the uh
44:01Down detector from the screen. We cover true crime and breaking news 24 7 365. Let me know what you think about twitter being down
44:09Hopefully I provided something to you some new
44:12Information that you were not aware of share your thoughts in the chat and we will talk soon jlr investigates
44:17Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. Thanks for watching. See you next time
