Facebook did go down over the past few days. In the news.
On October 1, 2015, around 12:00pm CDT, I discovered that I can no longer log in to my Facebook acct. I cannot even access facebook.com. all I get is a blank page. I have contacted my tech support (netgear) and also have contacted my internet protection (mcafee) after 5 hours of trying, there has been no progress made solving the problem. On the rare occasion that I actually stumble upon a "login" page, after entering my credentials, I get the same "BLANK" page. I have tried using both IE and Firefox with the same result. I contacted my ISP, they said it could not be their problem. One thing I have been told by people who can see my facebook page is that if I access a web page that has a "share" link, I actually can share the link to my facebook page. Can anyone please tell me what might be going on here??? I am totally confused and frustrated.
