Yeah thats what Mark Zuckerbitch has told you. Don’t believe that low life for one sec what he says. I’d say it was deliberately done by him to change or delete things that has just been said from a employee regarding money over people’s safety etc.
Wouldn’t piss on this guy if he was on fire.

I get social media like Facebook and not having an account, but don’t you use WhatsApp? I feel like it’s the most used messaging app. That’s the only reason why I instantly knew something was happening with servers.

A large portion of developing countries economies depend on facebook to conduct business, it allows businesses to communicate with customers as well. These are areas of the world that have populations that are unbanked or underbanked. Estimated at 4.9 billion people in the world fall under this category (why crypto currencies are powerful). We don’t feel the effects of an outage due to us having mature markets and banking systems. But this was huge for 1/2 the globe whose commerce came to a standstill.

🤔💭I’m pretty sure that they did it to hide documents and data related to illegal methods that they were using to make people addicted to Facebook and illegal tactics to make people depressed. PLUS, to diverge their attention from the those issues to this problem. As, recently a Facebook employee has released a documents regard illegal methods that Facebook use to make people depress

I think their explanation is a lie because stuff I deleted in facebook are back again.
Why would they restore data if the problem was a network problem????
