Billionaire businessman and CEO of social media platform, X, Elon Musk has come for the CEO of Facebook and Instagram, Mark Zuckerberg, again.
The subtle chaos happened on the 5th of March, 2024, when Instagram and Facebook experienced a brief glitch which made it impossible to use either of the social networks.
However, while the glitch lasted, netizens turned to X and other social media platforms for succor. A few minutes into the technical problem, Elon Musk makes a post on his verified X account, indirectly referring to his colleague, Zuckerberg.
Here’s what he posted;

All this is doing is escalating the ongoing competition and rivalry between the two tech titans, which intensified after Musk acquired Twitter.
The feud between the billionaires can be traced back to October 2022 when Twitter was purchased by Musk. After rumors surfaced that Instagram, owned by Zuckerberg’s firm, Meta Platforms, was developing a rival app to Twitter, he and Zuckerberg started to dispute.
Musk even challenged Zuckerberg to a cage fight which Zuckerberg accepted. However, after so much back and forth between the duo and the planners of the fight, the face-off failed to take place.
