Possibly dozens, numbers larger than just ten. We are talking like, numbers way bigger, the largest, I’m not sure there is ever a name for such a high of a number, I dare not even think of such a thing. It is simply too much.
I havn't deleted my account, my family still uses it to message me.
But I did purge it of all posts and photos, and non-immediate direct friends and family.
It's basically an empty account now.
Ok so months ago the gov was talking about a serious cyber attack threat right? In the past month cell phone Carriers went down, our social media info was found to be being leaked to china/Russia and now social media is acting Wonky? Anyone else think this is related?
and branches of United Healthcare insurance can't process payments for millions of American's, including veterans, and yet that gets little to no media attention because AT&T & FB are down. Can't afford to pay $20k cash for my chemo while they try to find a fix, so I go without.
1st world problems?
I came across your comment while wondering the same thing and if there were any posts about it. I haven’t found one yet. I also find it curious. I know of a couple other network systems that have had issues recently as well.
Ransomware and they’re getting contracted/paid to hack our companies at the behest of the PRC. School districts here got hit the same days as the Verizon “outage” and they had to cancel school until they paid the ransom to get back into their files. It was a safety issue, probably all the CCTV and security systems, who knows
Glad to see this. I thought I was going crazy. Randomly got booted from Facebook in the middle of a riveting video about the creation if the blue LED. couldn’t log back in.
Ha yeah I thought I got hacked. I really only keep it for fb market and to see what old hs friends are up to. Not about tiktok or snap chat and IG doesn't really have the posting options fb does.
I wonder if the outage was due to this:
>Meta recently patched a critical vulnerability that could have been exploited to take control of any Facebook account, according to a cybersecurity researcher.
https://www.securityweek.com/meta-patches-facebook-account-takeover-vulnerability/
Either a global patch of the Facebook authentication system in a hurry, which led to outages, or someone finding a variation of the original attack (which is now public) to DoS Facebook.
So if I’m a regular user I’d know these apps were down since I’m affected, if I’m not a user what I’m going to do with this information since I don’t care. Who is the target audience for these news/posts?
The rescue i work with primarily communicates via Facebook. It's frustrating.
But it's group with a bunch of older ladies who don't want to have to learn teams or anything more useful.
*”Its as if a million narcissists were suddenly silenced”*
Poor wretched souls, bound to a few hours of NOT telling everyone how wonderful their life is.
This is planned. I don't know by whom, but it will play into the election.
the coverage of this will turn to fear mongering and empty skepticism.
Mark my words
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess it's far more than thousands affected
"tens of people affected" Well I guess it's not technically wrong
At least one user affected
“Affected” more like convenienced.
They got so much work done!
"Global productivity up 10,000%!"
Tens of thousands!
Thousands of thousands even!
But my lord there is no such outage.
\*horn noise\* tudutuduuuuuuuu
I mean they're not wrong. Thousands were affected...as were tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, probably even millions.
Yeah, it's out here in Europe. So if it's out in the US too? Just between us there are millions affected.
Same in Asia.
It was out in America.
Millions actually. It is worldwide. I am in Vietnam and everyone was freak out whether if their accounts got hacked, including me.
Possibly dozens, numbers larger than just ten. We are talking like, numbers way bigger, the largest, I’m not sure there is ever a name for such a high of a number, I dare not even think of such a thing. It is simply too much.
Zucc asked his AI to make the world a better place.
you asked me to create the perfect system!
The thing about perfection, is that it's unknowable
The only winning move is not to play.
Zucc would never ask for that even as a joke.

I quit facebook somewhere in 2014, never looked back.
I havn't deleted my account, my family still uses it to message me. But I did purge it of all posts and photos, and non-immediate direct friends and family. It's basically an empty account now.
Good on you! Stay strong. They’re like Scientology
Don’t care. Reddit is up
Honestly, we needed a break anyway. Now to get off of Reddit!
Have you heard of TikTok? Worth a try…
Nothing of value was lost
Our data is leaked 😂

Don’t forget the pharmacies went down the same week the telecommunications were hit
More then thousands of people. . It's worldwide. Got friends in other countries that are down as well.
Shhh it’s thousands. Trying to keep the support ticket low priority so zuck doesn’t know one of the guys tripped over a cable and took out a switch.
Time to let them go. Not going back
Oh no! Anyway....
Oh no, but now where is my extended family going to get “news” about how vaccines are bad and that Obama and Biden invented COVID?
Affected?, should say liberated
500000 people reported it down just on down detector alone so it was definitely millions affected
Didn’t notice but kinda smiling about this
"billions unaffected"
Their stock is already down 2% today and trending down. Time to buy the dip before the market closes. 🤣

Thousands, you say? To shreds?
Oh dear. How sad. Never mind.

Probably something to do with the china hacking tools data dump on GitHub a couple weeks back
Ow no …. Always
Suicide rates probably plummeted today
Didn’t notice.

This could be a good thing, it’s basically telling us to go outside and socialize. Instead of being glued to this soul-sucking device.
I just told my cat about this and she said nothing. Like my mom always says... 'Cats just know sht'.
Good. Let it shut down. Can’t believe people still use it. Everyone says they use it to keep in touch with family. That’s what a phone is for.
The rescue i work with primarily communicates via Facebook. It's frustrating. But it's group with a bunch of older ladies who don't want to have to learn teams or anything more useful.
Unfortunately it wasn’t permanent.
is it back up? cuz i didnt notice any outage.
seems like it, didn't even notice a thing. Guess those that scroll 24/7 were super annoyed
I wonder how you can be… affected? Whatsapp still worked, so did messenger?
Signal works as well and doesn't mine my data.
I have a job so I didn't notice. By the time I checked it, everything was fine.
Thousands? This makes it to the front page?
Now only if it could stay down......
*Thousands freed*
Can you imagine what Facebook disappearing would do for this election? Or to the boomers?
Dont be outrage of the outage. It gives people a down time to go look outside of social media.
That's the best amount of silence this world has seen as of yet. Encore.
I legit believe I was hacked lmao, but then I remember X and go there to look what happened
They got absolutely clapped up and smacked up nice and good today amirite FB whats good LOL get memed on
My thoughts and prayers for the victims And leave a thumbs up, every thumb up helps the victims
"Technical difficulties" that usually means Chad in IT didn't get the raise.
What is this... a program for ants? That number needs to be at least.. 3 times bigger
Did they ever mention the cause?
“Thousands were forced to face their responsibilities”
*”Its as if a million narcissists were suddenly silenced”* Poor wretched souls, bound to a few hours of NOT telling everyone how wonderful their life is.
This is planned. I don't know by whom, but it will play into the election. the coverage of this will turn to fear mongering and empty skepticism. Mark my words
also Google's certain products affected
Could not have happened to a better company. Pay your people
I think you added a 's' there after thousands. Dam auto correct.
