READ | Twitter trolled Facebook about its outage – and WhatsApp was pretty cool about it "To every small and large business, family, and individual who depends on us, I'm sorry," Facebook Chief Technology Officer Mike Schroepfer tweeted, adding that it "may take some time to get to 100%". Shares rose about half a percent in after-hours trade following resumption of service. The outage was the second blow to the social media giant in as many days after a whistleblower on Sunday accused the company of repeatedly prioritising profit over clamping down on hate speech and misinformation.Īs the world flocked to competing apps such as Twitter and TikTok, shares of Facebook fell 4.9%, their biggest daily drop since last November, amid a broader selloff in technology stocks on Monday. We truly appreciate you and continue to be humbled by how much people and organizations rely on our app every day.

? Thank you to everyone around the world today for your patience while our teams worked diligently to restore WhatsApp.
