NEW YORK - Facebook went down for almost a full day across parts of North America and Europe, but it’s still not saying exactly what happened. All the social network said Thursday was that the outages, which affected users and advertisers worldwide, resulted from a “server configuration change.” It offered no further details. Facebook says it is aware of outages on its platforms including Facebook, Messenger and Instagram and is working to resolve the issue.

It didn’t help that it took Facebook so long to explain what was going on, he said.
