Quitting facebook back in 2013 was the easiest decision I ever made. Never signed up for any of the other stuff, never been a fan of algorithmic media. Not cuz of some high flying ideals n things, just cuz forums and chatrooms let you target yer engagement to your tastes that day. I can binge a subforum of some obscure minutia, read all the back catalog, and then not have it all shoved in my face for the next year and a half because I had a one day curiosity binge.
Algorithmic feeds were a mistake, man.

Looks like a massive hack.
They can't even get in the doors, their keycards are locked out.

Articles are now stating that they cannot even recieve external emails and that the DNS issue is possibly related to only something Facebook itself could do.

If you can't access Facebook, Instagram, Messenger or WhatsApp, you're not the only one. Starting at approximately 11:38AM ET, Downdetector began logging a spike in outage reports across all four Facebook-owned services. Andy Stone, a spokesperson for the company, said at 12:07PM ET that the company was working to resolve the issue quickly. The error page you see when trying to connect to the platforms suggests a Domain Name System (DNS) error is responsible for the outage.
It's not clear how widespread the issue is, but Downdetector shows more than 30,000 outage reports for Facebook alone, with another 20,000 tied to Instagram. Per a tweet from the official Oculus Twitter account, the problem is also affecting the Oculus App, Store and website.
It may take some time for Facebook to resolve the issue. According to The New York Times, the outage has also taken out Workplace, the company's internal communications platform. Additionally, employees reportedly can't receive external emails at the moment. We've reached out to Facebook for more information.
Per journalist Brian Krebs, Facebook's DNS records were withdrawn from the global routing tables sometime this morning."We don't know why this change was made," Krebs wrote in a tweet. "It could well have been the result of an internal, system-wide change or update that went awry. It's all speculation at this point why. Facebook alone is in control over its DNS records."

This is clearly RaidForums, but the article says it's scraped data. Which is not as juicy, but I'm not sure why it would have email addresses if it was only scraped.HAHA! One and half BILLION accounts are up for sale.

Anybody else think glow shenanigans are happening? They get hit with a media circus, a data leak, and a shutdown all at once?
