Facebook
said service to the world’s largest online social network was fully
restored on Friday, following a widespread outage that affected users in
multiple countries.
“Earlier
this morning, some people had trouble accessing Facebook for a short
time. We quickly investigated and have fully restored service for
everyone. We’re sorry for the inconvenience,” Facebook said in an
emailed statement.
Facebook,
which has 1.32 billion monthly users, is still investigating the
incident, but all signs suggest a “technical” failure rather than any
suspicious activity, said a person familiar with the matter who
requested anonymity because the probe is private.
Some
visitors to the site on Friday were greeted with a message that read
“Sorry, something went wrong. We’re working on getting this fixed as
soon as we can.”
It
was not immediately clear how widespread the disruption was, though
Reuters was aware of users having trouble accessing the site in the
United States, Chile and India.
