      <title>Facebook services down for many users due to international outages</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30326654/facebook-services-down-for-many-users-due-to-international-outages</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Facebook services were down for many users worldwide on Friday, according to the internet’s observatory, Net Block.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Facebook services have been experiencing international outages for many users, with high impact to Messenger and media upload endpoints; incident not related to country-level internet disruptions or filtering,” the observatory tweeted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Aaj News&lt;/em&gt; staffers complained that they were facing problems while uploading videos. Text posts and images were working well, however, the videos were either not processing or taking longer than expected.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch  media--embed  media--uneven'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  media__item--twitter  '&gt;&lt;span&gt;
    &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"&gt;
        &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/netblocks/status/1677299406339555328?"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
    &lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        
    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The international outage surfaces a day after Meta, the parent company of Facebook, &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30326486/twitter-competitor-threads-launched-here-is-how-to-sign-up"&gt;launched Threads&lt;/a&gt; which is built to compete with Twitter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Many users of microblogging social media sites have expressed concerns over the shenanigans of Elon Musk, who &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30302631/elon-musks-twitter-ownership-starts-with-firings-uncertainty"&gt;took over as Twitter boss in October 2022&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Musk &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30326276/after-imposing-tweet-limits-musk-shuts-down-tweetdeck-for-unverified-users"&gt;shut&lt;/a&gt; the social media platform’s popular dashboard Tweetdeck for unverified users on July 4.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The new restrictions on Tweetdeck were to apply in 30 days, according to an announcement by Twitter, but they have already taken effect for a large number of users from Tuesday.&lt;/p&gt;
