There were more than 62,000 reports of issues with Facebook and more than 8,000 reports of issues with Instagram as of 10:11am ET, according to Downdetector.com, which tracks outages by collating status reports from a number of sources.
Since the numbers on Downdetector are based on user-submitted reports, the actual number of affected users may vary.
Meta did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on the cause of the outage.
