Elon Musk Criticizes Amazon After AWS Outage
Elon Musk took a sharp dig at Amazon after a major AWS outage on Monday, Oct. 20, knocked out several cloud-dependent platforms for hours, temporarily bringing nearly half the internet to a halt.
Services including Amazon Prime Video, Canva, Perplexity AI, and several others relying on Amazon Web Services faced downtime, frustrating millions of users worldwide.
Musk posted a sarcastic “You don’t say” on X (formerly Twitter) in response to a resurfaced statement from the AWS CEO, where he had claimed that 75% of Amazon’s production code is now AI-generated.
Musk had earlier expressed distrust in Signal, the encrypted messaging app, which happens to depend on AWS servers. Signal’s President Meredith Whittaker confirmed on X that their platform was also impacted by the outage.
