Facebook is down + Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and Oculus VR

Just a notification that Facebook is down, along with Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and Oculus VR.

They will be up no doubt later so don't bother trying to fix or reinstall the above yourself. Just be patient.

---------------------------------------------------------

NB - Out of interest, they have been down for over an hour during which Facebook's share price has dropped 5.5% already!

Looks like it's a global issue. Here in Poland they stopped working 2 hours ago, around 6PM local time.

Same in Italy, at least regarding WhatsApp.

All I can say is "hahahaha"

I wonder if we'll ever find out who and why they pulled the plug.

Edit-Did recent Pandora papers leak broke them?
