The day after 60 Minutes aired a damning interview with a Facebook whistleblower alleging that Facebook has evidence of its negative impacts on society but chooses profit over action, Facebook’s holding, Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram were all down due to what appears to be a DNS issue.

So what is a Facebook or Instagram user to do when their social media platform of choice goes down? Post about it on Twitter, of course.
