Thousands of Facebook users who have been unable to access their account for nearly a week and a half now are now seeing their profiles restored--but some data related to recent profile updates may have been lost.
What happened? According to Facebook, the replacement of profiles and login screens with a "down for maintenance" notice--which appears to have started on October 3--stemmed from "a technical issue with a single database." The company has stressed that there is no chance that it was due to hackers or other malicious activity.
Profiles should be restored over the course of the next day, the company estimates.
