Twitter Is Down for Many Users (Sunday, Dec. 28)

Can't log into your Twitter account?  A large number of Twitter users are blocked from accessing their accounts tonight (Sunday). The problem started around 8:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

According to Twitter Status, "Our engineers are currently working to resolve this."

According to Engadget, the problem could be that the company's servers believe it's already 2015.

According to Straitstimes,"Users reported problems on the Twitter application for Android and iPhone smartphones, while tweets on the computer application TweetDeck were showing up as having been posted a year ago."

Many users trying to log directly in to Twitter are also having problems.

Rather have a conspiracy?
