Facebook was unavailable due to technical problems

Facebook was unavailable due to technical problems

Facebook users across Europe could not access their accounts on the world's largest social network this morning.

Some immediately thought that members of the group "Anonymous" brought down Facebook because of yesterday's arrest of the leader of the hacker group LulzSec. This suspicion was removed immediately after "Anonymous" posted on their Twitter account, claiming that they did not crash Facebook.

Namely, Facebook was not available throughout Europe this morning, as well as in Africa and Asia, so it would start working again after 3 hours.

They explain on Facebook that there were technical problems that led to the interruption of the work of that social network.

Today we had technical problems due to which Facebook was inaccessible to many users. The problem has been solved and now everyone could go to their profiles without any problems. We apologize,

- reads a short statement from Facebook.

It was confirmed that Facebook could not be accessed by users from:

Germany, France, Ireland, Iceland, Italy, the Netherlands, Russia, Spain, Great Britain, Albania, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Israel, Macedonia, Malta, Norway, Portugal, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, and Serbia.

Android TV Box - a guide to buying up to 30 euros

What is Android TV Box? This is a great solution if you want to add a " Smart " function to an existing TV . With this device, you can watch live TV online for free (later on), play games, upload all kinds of files, watch movies (from USB, over the internet, phone…), listen to songs, surf the internet, use social networks… or everything you can on your Android phone.

It connects to the TV via an HDMI cable , but some also have an AV output over 3.5mm that goes to the familiar 3 cinches, so you can also connect to an older TV (even to SCART if you have an adapter).
