I had immediately started the account hijack process which, funnily enough, is also down. I was kicked off Messenger and Facebook and then my password was rejected by the login page. This whole flow made it seem like an account takeover and not an authentication outage. Bad UX, Meta. Bad!

What's the account hijack process btw?

I'm from Sri Lanka. It's not working here; I was suddenly logged out from all devices.

In USA, same story here. Logged out and cannot log in.

So lovely that the status page indicates that everything is fine except the WhatsApp Business API!

Neither is the only Facebook status page I found, interestingly. https://metastatus.com/ At least, it shows everything green (except for WhatsApp Business API).

Being logged out of every app is so insane. No automatic recovery from that. Big fuckup.

Also got logged out an all devices, and can't get logged back in, or successfully complete a password reset. In the US. Glad it's not just me...

Thank you for posting, I'm glad you can generally find service status better here than status pages that never show downtime.
