‘Did they switch
it off and on again?’
‘I survived the
great Facebook outage of 2021’
And my
favourite...
‘Were you
affected by having no Instagram for up to six hours?
You could be due compensation’
Yes Facebook,
Instagram, WhatsApp and humankind went down for six hours on Monday night. Some people are still trying to recover.
£36 billion was
wiped off the value of the company - eek.
2 billion people were affected.
And it looks
like it was down to human error.
Imagine if you were the FB employee responsible!
The serious
side was it affected banking in Africa, family communications everywhere and millions of businesses who use the platforms.
And some people
had to talk to their partners!
Their conversation was most likely, ‘It’s still off’. ‘I know’.
We have faith
that things should ‘just work’ and when they don’t we miss the convenience.
Like when
there’s a power cut or your water supply is disrupted.
Or when
somebody leaves.
Give thanks for
what you take for granted (even Insta & Facebook).
Tell someone
you appreciate them.
What do you think we have faith will work... until it doesn't? Please leave your comments here.
Be Brilliant!
