The interruption in Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp, which has a total of more than 3 billion users worldwide, and lasted for about 7 hours, ended around 23.30 in Turkey time.
The news made by the New York Times yesterday about the problem that opened a $ 6.7 billion gap in the personal wealth of the owner of the platforms, Mark Zuckerberg, has been corrected.
Allegations of forced entry into Facebook presentations
With the collapse of three separate platforms at the same time, hundreds of rumors, some true and some false, were put forward. New York Times reporter Rat King claimed that the security cards of the team sent to Facebook servers with his tweet series yesterday were closed and they could not enter. He then explained that the team had been using a chainsaw and angle grinder with difficulty to access the servers.
After the news made by New York yesterday, technology editor Rat King, who published a statement via his official Twitter account, clarified the issue. King, who denied the news he made, accepted that what he wrote was not true and apologized to his followers.
Here is Rat King’s statement:
“I’d like to make a correction: The team sent to the Facebook servers had trouble getting inside due to physical security measures. But they didn’t have to use a saw or a grinder to get inside. I accept the mistake I made. Sorry. ”

Although the Facebook front is going through a very painful process, the news that the servers were entered by force was thus denied. So what do you think about this? Do not forget to share your views with us in the comments.
