There’s been a major outage across the world. Fortunately everyone has a sense of perspective on it.
There's a problem with Facebook.
It is global.
This is the first time Facebook has suffered a widespread outage which has lasted for more than a few minutes.
Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook founder and chief executive was famously quoted as saying that the social network would never go down, it would never crash.
