Facebook comes back online
after about 30 minutes of outage. A notorious hack team, Lizard Squad claimed
responsibility which the Facebook spokesperson quickly denied.
“Earlier this evening many people had trouble
accessing Facebook and Instagram. This was not the result of a third party
attack but instead occurred after we introduced a change that affected our
configuration systems. We moved quickly to fix the problem, and both services
are back to 100% for everyone.”
It
should be recalled that Liberty Squad launched the acclaimed attacks on
Malaysia’s Airline website, Xbox Live and Play Station last Christmas.
Since
then, their name has been on the lips of every game player. Their logo of a
Tuxedo wearing lizard is unmistakable.
Army
of Facebook users took to Twitter lamenting the outage; some were humorous.
Another was quite interesting:
“Facebook and Instagram have been down for 30 mns. Just read 4 books.”
