WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram Outage Caused by Problem in Company’s Domain Name System
The outages of Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram on Monday were most likely due to problems with the company’s domain name system, which is an inconspicuous but vital component of the Internet.
Usually called DNS, it is like the phone book of the Internet. It is a tool that converts a web domain (such as Facebook) into the actual Internet protocol or IP address where the site is located. Think of Facebook as the person people might look for in the white pages, and think of the IP address as the physical address they will find. On Monday, a technical issue related to Facebook’s DNS records caused at least a six-hour outage.
When a DNS error occurs, the user’s web browser or smartphone application can navigate to the Facebook service longer. Not only did Facebook’s main platform malfunction, but some of its internal applications also malfunctioned, including the company’s own email system.
Users on Twitter and Reddit also stated that employees of the company’s campus in Menlo Park, California cannot enter offices and conference rooms that require security badges. This can happen if the system granting access is also connected to the same domain-Facebook. Facebook’s problem seems to stem from Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). If DNS is the phone book of the Internet, then BGP is its postal service. When users enter data on the Internet, BGP determines the best available path through which the data can be transmitted.
According to John Graham-Cumming, Cloudflare’s chief technology officer, in a tweet, a few minutes before the Facebook platform stopped loading, public records showed that Facebook’s BGP routing has undergone a lot of changes. Facebook has not yet commented on whether or why these changes were made.

Surfaces of the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra with Snapdragon 8S Gen 3
Early this week, renders of the Edge 50 Fusion appeared, and Motorola has previously stated that the Edge 50 Pro will ship on April 3. The highest-end smartphone in the Edge 50 series, the Edge 50 Ultra, has now been shown in renders.
The phone is depicted in the renderings in peach fuzz and black with a vegan leather finish, while sisal, a beige color, will have a brushed surface. As opposed to the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 in the Pro variant and the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 in the Edge 50 Fusion, the phone is reportedly powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC.
A 50MP primary camera, an ultra-wide camera, and a periscope telephoto camera with a 5x optical zoom are all included in the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra’s feature set. Additionally, there is a triple LED flash on the right side and a laser autofocus feature above the periscope lens.
Although the phone’s display, battery, and charging specifications are yet unknown, the Edge 50 Pro is said to include 12GB of RAM and support both 50W and 125W wired and wireless charging.
It is anticipated that this will launch as the Motorola X50 Ultra in China. It is unclear if the India launch may be expected on the same day as the rest of the Edge 50 series phones, even if this is scheduled to go official on April 3.
