Massive Zoom Outage Affects Thousands of Users Worldwide

A significant outage of the Zoom video conferencing platform has left tens of thousands of users unable to join meetings or access the website, with reports indicating that as many as 65,000 users are experiencing issues. The outage, which has been attributed to a potential DDoS attack claimed by the Dark Storm Team hacking group, has caused widespread chaos, particularly among remote workers relying on the service. Multiple reports from Downdetector confirm that this outage is impacting users across the globe, with many facing connectivity problems and error codes such as 5003. As of now, Zoom has stated that service is being restored after the disruption, although frustrations among users remain high as they demand updates regarding the situation.
