Facebook, Instagram, and Whatsapp, now down for hours, leaves people wondering if the outage may have anything to do with last night’s 60 Minutes interview with Facebook’s latest whistleblower, Frances Haugen.
Whatever the reason, there are people online everywhere in a total upset over the outage.
It’s hard to blame them when there are so many businesses that now rely on these apps for the majority of their advertising and business practices.
Me, I’m just hopeful that Zuck caved under all the pressure and cut the cord. He might not think so, but we will all survive. Uncomfortable for business people, at first, but the loss of FB is no real loss at all. There are other, more trusted, options.
