Meta Logs out Users March 5, 2024  11:47am Knoxville TN Knoxville LGBTQ Friendly Business Directory, Beau Knowles LGBT (Image My Facebook Like Symbol Coffee Cup.)

Updated 3:00 pm est. I was finally able to access my facebook account. During the time of being logged out I started texting my business contacts with this article and told them that I felt we should wait it out. I was afraid too many attempts to log back in or change password would cause even more problems. It still doesn't appear there was an explanation for the outage.

At 10:30 a.m. today eastern standard time my Facebook logged me out saying the "session had ended". Occasionally this happens. I start to enter my password and I can't get in. It says my password is incorrect when I know it's not. It is the right password. I look to see if maybe it sent me a notice on another device. As a social media manager and content creator I have a couple of different devices. One has a better camera, then the others, one plays better music. I look at all my devices. I'm logged out of all of them. That is odd, I've worked with the community members that have been hacked. Normally our beginning steps to dealing with a hacker is to find another device that you are logged in on and update your password. However, I was locked out of everything. 

I checked my other account, like most people I have a private and a professional account. No such luck there. I found myself logged out of my business account too. That one also says my password is incorrect.

I searched on the Internet looking at Google to see that many people are locked out. The report said thousands. It needs to be changed hundreds of thousands. The last time I looked it was 359,000 users 11:07 a.m. Eastern standard Time.
