It seems like Facebook is down for everyone, Users from Germany, U.S, U.K, Canada, India, Pakistan, and several other Countries have confirmed the outage.
Facebook Messanger and other apps were also inaccessible during the period.
Why Facebook went down?
Facebook usually don’t respond to comments over the reason of the Downtime but interesting thing is that it is not the first time when Facebook has suffered down time, infact Facebook went down in May, June and August too. However we have reached out Facebook for comments hoping to get a reply.
What’s Interesting about the Facebook outage?
It has been seen that whenever Facebook suffers downtime, Users post there queries and response over downtime on other social networking websites.
The most interesting fact related to Facebook going down is that most of the time Facebook starts trending on twitter soon after minutes of its downtime. However this time the outage was not long enough for Facebook to trend over twitter. but still you will be able to see interesting/funny tweets from many users.
So… be honest. Who’s only here because #facebook is down? #facebookdown

Few Fakist Hackers may take responsibility of the downtime of Facebook by claiming a DDoS attack put by them on Facebook server, but that’s not true.
The Downtime lasted for about 15 Minutes
