Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp are down – again

Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp all appear to be suffering an outage that is affecting both the US and UK. 

According to the outage tracking site DownDetector, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp services have all seen a huge spike in outage reports in the UK.

TechRadar has confirmed that Instagram in the US isn't loading, at least for some of our team members, and the US DownDetector page shows similar spikes in outage reports in the US as we're seeing in the UK.

Australia also seems to have been hit by the same outage, but the number of reports aren't nearly as high as in the US and UK.
