5 October 2021 Facebook was out for several hours today (and so was Instagram). Employees tried to get into the building to fix whatever was wrong, but their key cards didn't work. The only way Facebook could let people know what was going on was by posting messages on its rival, Twitter. Twitter, on the other hand, posted this tweet, which I found hilarious.
The technical reasons for it were too complicated for me to understand, but several people have offered possible reasons for the shut down.
According to detection websites, by noon, there were over five million reports that Facebook was down. In America alone, there were over 123,000 reports of the social media giant being down. There were some very clever responses from people talking about what they did during the six hours Facebook was out.
I didn't really notice that Facebook was down until Jeri texted me to tell me it was. I had tried to get to Yvonne in the Bush to see today's photos and noticed that I could get text but no photos anywhere on Facebook.
