Facebook is indeed down.
If social media is all that goes down, not I huge loss I guess.
Hacking maybe?

In a way, but for a LOT of people the way things have evolved the past 18 months, a huge portion, if not all, of business is via facebook, messenger and marketplace.

That is the point I believe. Get it all up where it can be taken down with a flip of a switch.

Any business that depends on Facebook, deserves what they get. There is a sizable demographic who, like myself, will never see their info because we will not join the cult.

I have never had an account on those sites. No loss, they can stay down permanently and I wouldn't know the difference

Are all of these services connected in some way, owned by the same people or using the same bank of servers? Just a few days ago, BofA went down for a few hours.
I would not put it past any of our adversaries, foreign or domestic, to be testing the waters.
This is why I am wary of relying too much on technology of any kind.
