Usually no big deal but it's kind of fishy it happens the day after a Facebook whistleblower is the lead story on 60 minutes:

Is Facebook down? Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger coming back after one of worst Facebook outages

Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp were down in a major outage that started before noon Monday. Social media fans moved to Twitter to commiserate.

Good riddance as far as I am concerned.

Oversharers Anonymous meetings should be packed tonight.

DO people really do Facebook still?

Actually a lot of older folks use it to stay engaged with the world. Additionally a lot of small businesses and organizations use the platform as their defacto web site, especially mom and pop restaurants.
