Here's the latest on the global tech outage from reporter @matthfield:

Television channels, airports and banks around the world have been knocked offline in a massive outage causing Windows computers to suddenly shut down.

✍️ @GazTheJourno: Elon Musk has always wanted to create a company called X.

@GazTheJourno 🗣️ @GazTheJourno: Twitter’s blue bird logo has been with the site since its creation in 2006.
