Lol that goon who predicted Trump would die on Halloween might be right. America's arch-tulpa is weakening and dying, and the psychic backlash is disintegrating the globe-spanning arcane formula that was his source of power.

This is basically the last act of a SMT game and I am all for it :lol:

obviously now that i've said this something dumb will happen and it will turn out to be some random dude at a datacenter. but until that happens... this is not facebook being wiped out.

yes it was most likely an accident, and no you don't need a heavy salary. probably just some underpaid IT worker missed a character in a config file that dropped facebook from BGP and all the automated systems just picked it up and propagated it.

if you're wondering, "gee that sounds incredibly prone to errors"... welcome to how the entire world economy is built upon.

I imagine if you had a website that was trying to load content from FB, it would just stall out while waiting. But some sites don't handle that well, so you'd be sitting there waiting. Doubt it would actually affect the host of the site, just your access to it.
