Zuckerberg's Facebook page down: Followers decreased from 119 million to 10 thousand

Facebook followers of Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg have suddenly dwindled. Along with this, many users have complained of decreasing their followers. According to media reports, this has happened due to a bug. Earlier he had 119 million (119 million) followers, but till 12 noon on Wednesday, only 9 thousand 995 remained.
Zuckerberg's profile page is also no longer visible on the app. On opening it, a message appears. It reads, 'This page is not available. This has happened due to some technical error. However, his reduced number of followers can be clearly seen on the web page. So far neither Facebook nor Zuckerberg has issued any statement regarding this.
Earlier on Tuesday (October 11), Meta had warned its Facebook users of data theft. Meta reported that several apps on Android and iOS misused them by stealing their login credentials. The case of the theft of login credentials of about one million Facebook users has come to light. Most photo editors, games, VPN services, and business and utility apps have seen such errors.
Keeping in mind the safety of its users, Meta detected 400 such apps on Google Play Store and Apple Store. By stealing the Facebook credentials of the users using these apps, they were being used for the wrong purposes.
Russia has included Instagram and Facebook's parent company Meta in the list of terrorist organizations. Russian officials say the platforms are spreading propaganda against Russia. Putin banned Facebook and Instagram in March.
