Mark Zuckerberg’s apology slammed after outage
Mark Zuckerberg’s apology has been slammed after Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram’s seven-hour outage meant users “lost business”.
Zuckerberg’s own fortune plummeted by $7billion as a result of the technical mishap, which locked users out for much of Monday.
“Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger are coming back online now,” Zuckerberg said in a post.
“Sorry for the disruption today — I know how much you rely on our services to stay connected with the people you care about.”
But users weren’t having a bar of it and slammed the apology.
Monica Izumi said Facebook’s services were “so important to me, my work and my clients”.
A man said he had “missed out on a lot of business today” because of the outage.
Ossai Ovie posted: “Some of us lost some amount of money yesterday as a result of the outage.”
