You can load FB buttons and stuff without affecting your site at all, even if FB has DNS issues or is blocked by a firewall

You load the JS SDK using the "fif" pattern. If it fails to load, none of the tags like <fb:like> etc get replaced by iframes, so no errors on the page. `DOMContentLoaded` and `onload` on your page fire as usual. It's as if the site doesn't even use FB widgets

Just be aware that doing that gives FB a chance to sniff cookies, referrer and other stuff on your own page.
<sarcasm>Of course, FB is completely trustworthy with any data you give them access to, so nothing wrong will ever happen.</sarcasm>

My cached results seem to have a cname of "star.c10r.facebook.com", which works:
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: star.c10r.facebook.com
Addresses: 2a03:2880:10:8f01:face:b00c:0:1
31.13.72.23
Aliases: www.facebook.comWoah, downforeveryoneorjustme says: Huh? http://www.facebook.com doesn't look like a site on the interwho.
Yep, I checked there too. Also getting:
Ping request could not find host www.facebook.com. Please check the name and try again.

DNS issue? I can ping some of their IP addresses but not others.
The facebook.com ping in Brazil don't work.
A little investigation:
Anon_Online notices of the event, OP probably high/drunk https://twitter.com/Anon_Online/status/278269562422697987
Odd-looking whois of facebook.com (notice the xxx domains and last update timestamp) http://pastebin.com/K4gAK3gi
Hmm

Hmm
Those DNS records are legit. the domains aren't facebook.com, facebook.com is at the beginning. Do a whois for anyone, and you'll get similar results.
Edit, this is the google.com whois http://scrp.at/de0b2ad78907145d389c19b5cd61dc7b4d06e4e7

1) Anonymous are very unlikely to have anything to do with this;
2) There's nothing untoward about that whois report; you need to put the domain in speech marks to query the exact domain

This looks like a DNS Problem, can't be anon.
If it's down for you, try these IPs, to check whether is a DNS problem.

Doesn't work for me. Facebook still not loading in Germany.
Guys, just go to https://beta.facebook.com/ and it works.
Until you try to log in...
You are right!
Both gmail and facebook down within an hour or so? Something going on?
Down here in France. Geo dns issue?
I just tried using: http://www.analogx.com/cgi-bin/cgidig.exe?DNS=208.67.222.222... and that's claiming everything is fine (i.e. www.facebook.com exists and is a CNAME for star.facebook.com)

It seems like a SERVER has been taken down. Due to the large differences in location, it seems like a server(s) that service(s) multiple locations has/have been taken out. People are screaming Anon, but it could be a power outage and have the same effect.
Either way, get ready to change some passwords.

So www.facebook.com is not resolving but facebook.com does. Someone pushed a bad dns update?
Strange, yes downforeveryoneorjustme says it is not a site, but I can refresh FB just fine.

It is up for me in Austin, Texas. Maybe a localized DNS issue?
Huh. As of 15 minutes ago, I was (successfully) pulling data from http://graph.facebook.com.
At home I got nothing.
On my server I get the layout but no content.
It works fine for a friend on the same ISP as me.

Try flushing your DNS.
Windows: CMD -> ipconfig /flushdns
Still down in New Zealand, mind you.

On a serious note: DNS issue.
The authoritative nameservers a.ns.facebook.com and b.ns.facebook.com seem to be "set up" like this a the moment:
*.facebook.com ->(cname) star.facebook.com -> no answer
facebook.com still resolves the correct (?) IPs, but www.facebook.com, developers.facebook.com, graph.facebook.com all starting to die as your DNS cache expires. That's why it still might work for some at the moment while it really is broken.
