According to Downdetector, which monitors website and online service outages, more than 100,000 reports of problems with Facebook were submitted worldwide around that time.
Meta spokesperson Andy Stone wrote minutes later: “We’re aware that people are currently having trouble accessing our services. We’re working on it.”
Because of the outage affecting Meta’s own platforms, Stone posted the update on rival social network X, formerly Twitter.
