  • Facebook News Feed Broken for Hours

    Facebook reportedly experienced a bug on Wednesday that flooded several users' News Feed with posts from celebrity pages. These were seemingly posts sent to celebrity pages on Facebook like Robert Downey Jr, Lady Gaga, Nirvana, Ajay Devgn, and more. Reports suggest that the cause of this bug could have been an attack by bots spamming the service. In addition, several Facebook users reportedly took advantage of this error by posting donation links and cryptocurrency projects, while others decided to post several memes on celebrity pages.

    According to a report by The Verge, Facebook's News Feed appeared to be broken for several users on Wednesday. It was reportedly flooded by posts sent to celebrity pages like Lady Gaga, Nirvana, and The Beatles. The issue was resolved after around three hours, as per the report.

    In addition, MySmartPrice speculates that the error could have been caused by bots that were spamming random posts on celebrity pages. Users reportedly took advantage of this commotion and spammed celebrity pages with donation links and cryptocurrency programs hoping to get a wide reach.
