...and that's why you don't use Facebook Like buttons and Boxes all over your site. because it looks broken and full of errors now. Also, I don't want to know what this outage is doing to all the "Log in with Facebook" buttons right now.
On a serious note: DNS issue.
The authoritative nameservers a.ns.facebook.com and b.ns.facebook.com seem to be "set up" like this a the moment:
*.facebook.com ->(cname) star.facebook.com -> no answer
facebook.com still resolves the correct (?) IPs, but www.facebook.com, developers.facebook.com, graph.facebook.com all starting to die as your DNS cache expires. That's why it still might work for some at the moment while it really is broken.
- ssttoo 14y agoYou can load FB buttons and stuff without affecting your site at all, even if FB has DNS issues or is blocked by a firewall https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10151176218703920 https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10151176218703920 You load the JS SDK using the "fif" pattern. If it fails to load, none of the tags like <fb:like> etc get replaced by iframes, so no errors on the page. `DOMContentLoaded` and `onload` on your page fire as usual. It's as if the site doesn't even use FB widgets
- beagle3 14y agoJust be aware that doing that gives FB a chance to sniff cookies, referrer and other stuff on your own page. <sarcasm>Of course, FB is completely trustworthy with any data you give them access to, so nothing wrong will ever happen.</sarcasm>
