Facebook down: 10 memes poking fun at outage as world flocks to Twitter instead

With Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram all down for hours on Monday night, it was only a matter of time before memes emerged to poke fun at the situation.

Unfortunately though, they couldn’t be viewed in any of these places… meaning Twitter was the ultimate destination for tongue-in-cheek posts as people around the world tried to avert boredom.

First and foremost, the biggest concern for most people was whether anyone else was having the same problem…

This curious situation wasn’t lost on Twitter…

As Britons tried to cope without their photos of the posh meals their friends are having in restaurants, some might have opted to switch on Netflix and watch Squid Game – the latest show to turn into an overnight sensation. Sensing the mood, the streaming giant tweeted…

With Facebook’s stock price tanking, it’s been a day to forget for the tech giant. This eagle-eyed Twitter user even spotted that the Facebook.com domain is for sale. Does this mean that Mark Zuckerberg has decided to shut up shop after making billions over the past 17 years?

Some decided to dust off some tried-and-tested memes to make light of the situation – including this man quietly enjoying a takeaway as chaos unfolds around him…

And keeping with the theme, Twitter users are certainly feeling smug tonight. This user shared a picture of Disaster Girl – a four-year-old who went viral after smirking in front of a burning building – with a couple of updates to reflect the current situation…

Here’s a neat take told through the medium of football…

This isn’t necessarily a meme, but Edward Snowden – the whistleblower known for exposing how the US government monitors Americans – had this perspective…

Facebook and Instagram go mysteriously offline and, for one shining day, the world becomes a healthier place. #facebookdown

Some millennials have now started to yearn for the days when the likes of MSN Messenger and Bebo ruled the roost…

But others have started to worry that the avalanche of people descending on Twitter might be causing other problems…

制衡中國戰略擴張 美國將公布「印太經濟架構」細節

美國副貿易代表比安奇(Sarah Bianchi)表示,拜登政府在未來幾週將公布擬與亞洲國家簽署「印太經濟架構」的更多細節。 (圖:取自網路) 2022/02/02 19:28〔編譯盧永山/綜合報導〕根據彭博報導,美國副貿易代表比安奇(Sarah Bianchi)表示,拜登政府在未來幾週將公布擬與亞洲國家簽署「印太經濟架構」的更多細節。比安奇表示,美國的目標是在「印太經濟架構」納入數據在地化、跨界數據流動等數位議題,以及勞動力、環境和氣候變遷的規則。 比安奇在出席華盛頓國際貿易協會(WITA)主辦的線上論壇中表示:「我們現在還在初期階段,當大家獲悉更多細節,將會發現裡面有數量龐大的內涵,這個倡議真的令人興奮,也相當強有力。」美國商務部長雷蒙多和貿易代表戴琪是在與澳洲、紐西蘭、新加坡、馬來西亞和日本進行會談後,於去年11月公布上述計畫。拜登政府已經表明,不會重返「跨太平洋夥伴全面進步協定」(CPTPP),將透過「印太經濟架構」,制衡中國一帶一路的戰略擴張。雷蒙多去年11月表示,「印太經濟架構」與傳統的貿易協議不同,但將涵蓋半導體、基礎建設、網路安全、技術標準和隱私權等供應鏈韌性,也將指導出口管制的合作、監督供應鏈和協調亞洲的投資。我國官員先前表示,美國未來若正式對台灣提出邀請,台灣順勢加入「印太經濟架構」的機率不小。 不用抽 不用搶 現在用APP看新聞 保證天天中獎  點我下載APP  按我看活動辦法
