Zuckerberg’s fortune declined by$5.9 billion to a very$ 117 billion in total. (He’s now the world’s sixth richest person.) and his wealth fall to$1.9 billion.

Facebook stock came under pressure from two fronts an astonishingly long outage of its namesake platform, Instagram and WhatsApp, a mistake likely going the company lookers of millions of bones in return. (In the terminal quarter, it brought in around$ 330 million a day in transactions.) Facebook last suffered a swoon like this in 2019, when the network shut down for 14 hours. A decade anteriorly, in 2008, it went dark for a day. Monday’s outage affected internal systems at Facebook, too, making it unrealizable for workers to pierce emails, the internal messaging system known as Workplace, yea reportedly some doors at company headquarters.

The other matter meaning on Facebook is Tuesday’s Congressional sound, where a former product superintendent, Frances Haugen, will witness about her decision to turn a whistleblower and leak internal data to the Wall Street Journal. In a 1 hour interview last night, she dispraised Facebook for putting “ proceeds over people” and failing to maintain safeguards against misinformation after the 2020 presidential election.
