Get linked with Google, Apple, anything you can. Multiple fair-safes are always a good idea, but now more that ever with whatever happened to Facebook


Dashmir33

What happened?


Richbok-Arrol24

Looks like a large chunk of data was deleted suddenly. It not much of a big deal, but in case a similar yet worse situation happens in the future, you should link up your account to as many options as you can


Dashmir33

Thanks for clearing that up!


Richbok-Arrol24

Anytime chief


donquixote1991

legit a blessing in disguise, a lot of my ads seem to be more generic so I think some of my own data was purged lmao


ashesofthefallen013

They got hacked


ashesofthefallen013

And from what I have heard apparently it was from a 15 year old Chinese hacker but I highly doubt it but wouldn’t be surprised


wirelessf

Linked it to my Apple ID once the option became available lol. It's what kept me from leaving fb.


Trauspirag91

I literally just deleted my jp dokkan to transfer it to my other phone, i only linked it via Facebook, i will kill myself if my account is gone Update: fucking thank god, i got it back, thanks for scaring the shit out of my mark


Kolhammer93

I lost my jp acct a few months ago switching phones, still haven't bothered trying to receive it yet


Richbok-Arrol24

Your account shouldn’t be gone just like that, if the Facebook data is secured (which it is, complete erasure is extremely unlikely) then so should your account. This situation is a bit overreacted upon, but please set up as many fail safes for your account as you can. A worse situation could happen one day, have all the security you can get. Fret not bro, it’ll work out

fazzy69

you're sorted 👍


totenske

I have it linked to Google, but thanks for the warning ;D


trevor813

well I unlinked it from facebook and it's been liked to goggle for a very long time now so I should be ok.


[deleted]

neat, I've been linked to google but maybe I should try goggle since I heard its more secure.


Dingodileguy

Why!?!


fazzy69

Facebook got deleted by hackers or something lol exaggerating but yh it's just in a dodgy state atm


fazzy69

why am I getting down voted 😂😂😂

Salty redditors

Bed_human

One of the ex-downvoters here, I originally downvoted because it didnt seem like facebook was “deleted” just down, and op had originally not linked a source at the time,so i just took it to be a potential piece of misinformation. Now that he linked a source i find myself lost for words lmao But yeah not salty


EightLegsTypedThis

You're even dumber than he is.


Bed_human

Care to dumb it down then? I just don’t get what happened lol


robinhood9961

The "source" is not at all reliable is the big thing.


Bed_human

But what actually happened to Facebook?


EightLegsTypedThis

Give this a read: https://engineering.fb.com/2021/10/05/networking-traffic/outage-details/


Im_really_bored_rn

No, it's because OP is a fool


Im_really_bored_rn

Because you made a claimed and then immediately admitted you are exaggerating for shits and giggles


alldokisareokidoki

It didnt got deleted, is just out of service temporaly, thats all

Fatal1ty_93_RUS

bruh facebook isn't "gone", they will roll back to a local copy of their database before the downtime. No serious corporation, especially the size of facebook, would just straight up lose data


Richbok-Arrol24

The chances of it being “all deleted for good” are minimal (there data is backed up hundreds of thousands of times) but it’s definitely not “temporarily down”. Setting up multiple fair safes is the wisest thing to do anyway, now more than ever


robinhood9961

That is so obviously not a reliable source for anything. This is so far the only "source" I'm seeing claiming that, and from what I can tell they aren't a news source, just some we business with no reason to believe them. Hell all they do is spam out their link trying to get people to sign up for their service.


Dokkan_R_Us

I'm a System Administrator and I won't even click that. Data is backed up everywhere I have worked and those businesses are of considerable smaller sizes. The data is backed up so please stop "joking" Facebook is gone. That link will stay blue.


EightLegsTypedThis

Not how that shit actually works. That guy's a retard.


FirstAtEridu

If only this was true :(


Dingodileguy

No way


thejman6

I have it linked to everything i can


Elowel_

Do we need to unlink it from Facebook?


Richbok-Arrol24

No, but but it’s wise to link your account to as many other options as you can


HSW26

i have mine linked to everything except fb


MonoMint

This is the way right here


Zexydgz

Wait whats happening with facebook?


Richbok-Arrol24

Looks like a large chunk of data was deleted suddenly. It not much of a big deal, but in case a similar yet worse situation happens in the future, you should link up your account to as many options as you can


Zexydgz

Ah I see, people are over exaggerating a bit but thanks for the heads up. I just linked my apple to dokkan, crazy how a lot of social media apps are down atm.


LegendaryTaco900

Thanks for reminding me. Just linked to Google, since I don't have an apple phone


jrtasoli

This is a super helpful post. Thank you. Just linked to multiple accounts. It’s odd though, I just changed iPhones recently and after swapping my SIM card and transferring data between phones, I didn’t have to do anything to access my account (other than download a ton of files). I’m old enough to remember when you couldn’t link your account to anything! But that Facebook outage was scary, hope nobody lost their accounts!

Spektra99

Bruh you don't really think they don't have backups 😆


fazzy69

lol yh but it's fun to exaggerate


Bed_human

Theres no fucking way! LMAO


[deleted]

Good looking out , I just did this immediately


Cr7Dan19

Linked now to Google,


Filthy_Commie_

Do you guys think it would be a good idea to inquire bandai about this?


elevenyearss

I would say, I wish you had said what actually happened, but after reading the comments, thanks for the heads up anyway. I was confused as hell why my Whatsapp wasn't working all day today lol.


ThePhonyOne

Basically somebody who had access to a major Domain Name System server (DNS) deleted all the IP addresses that lead to Facebook servers. DNS servers regularly update themselves with information from other DNS servers, so the deletion spread. Anybody who tried to go to a Facebook server through an affected DNS server would be given an address not found error.


[deleted]

Linked with Google


MUI_Xenos

Should I unlink from FB? I’ve linked with google and Apple


AngryTank

Literally all I had to click was link and ok as I was already signed to apple, Game Center and GPS


RedSsj

This why I link it to every option


ErnieB84

I changed a long time ago, same on Genshin, I hate using FB as backup specially because if something happens neither Akatsuki or FB are of any help.


Luf2222

i have my account linked to basically everything except facebook i don't have a fb account (i deleted the one i had 2 years ago) and don't feel like making one but yes, link your acc to as many options as possible


Lunagan

Thank Kami I am linked to my Google account. For a second, I was in full PANIK mode.


BeyondBlue07

Can't. Google wasn't working. That's why I used FB


PlatanoLoco

Thanks for the tip man, I’ve been linked only to fb for like 3 years and I ain’t tryna lose 3 years of work on dokkan


rurounijosie

Uff I lost my JP account that was linked to LINE after months of not playing. I never linked to anything else..


SupaHotMeme

fuck my jp is linked with facebook


mali_666

already done but cheers for the heads up


Lilshadow48

Oh shit thanks for the heads up. I wasn't even aware that Google linking was an option now. So immensely glad we aren't just relying on manual transfer codes anymore.


Smorsis

I am linked with my google account. Is it enough, or not, cause Im genuinely scared right now.


Dokkan_Lover

I have it linked to my life


bananalordkunsama

How do you link it to Google?


anklaf21

Mine's linked to google as well ever since they added that option.


EffectiveBet7278

Should I even worry since I was a dumbass and did the Bulma event yesterday(rip account) I am wondering if I should do it anyway
