Dear Rarebird,

X (formerly Twitter) appears to be blocking SI's access to their oembed access point, which is how SI embeds Tweets in posts. I'm guessing this is X's response to some sort of DDOS attack, and there may me some hoops we'd need to jump through to facilitate some new level of authentication they are requiring.

So, there appears to be some change we may have to make to get the X post embed service back up. The block seems to be specifically targeting our web servers, as we can access their oembed endpoint from some other servers.

Will let you know more as I do.

Regards,

@Dima
