Facebook And Instagram Faces Global Outage
On Tuesday, Meta apps Instagram and Facebook faced a global outage as millions of users were unable to log in to their accounts. Both the sites showed that they weren’t able to refresh, while Facebook users were logged out of their accounts and when tried to change passwords, it showed that the passwords they entered were incorrect.
Meta spokesperson Andy Stone stated, “We’re aware people are having trouble accessing our services. We are working on this now.”
Sharing Stone’s statement, Elon Musk posted a hilarious meme.

Elon Musk And Mark Zuckerberg’s Feud
Two of the most powerful intellectuals of the tech world have had a history of beef between them. It all started when Musk’s SpaceX rocket destroyed Facebook’s AMOS-6 satellite. After that, it only went downhill.
Elon frequently voiced his negative opinions on Facebook and went on a whole rampage of deleting his company’s pages and taking digs at Mark and his endeavors.
Further on, when Musk acquired Twitter and rebranded it as X, reports surfaced that Mark was working on a similar app, which he later launched as ‘Threads. This took a toll on their fight and it reached the level of tension where both the CEOs were getting ready for an ultimate fight.

Zuckerberg then responded that he was up for the fight too. This exchange went on for quite some time until it finally quietened down. It’s unknown if the billionaires are serious about their plans of fighting, but if they are, it’ll probably be an extremely interesting face-off.
