Outage highlights how vital Facebook has become worldwide
The six-hour outage at Facebook, Instagram and Whatsapp was a headache for many casual users but far more serious for the millions of people worldwide who rely on the social media sites to run their businesses or communicate with relatives, fellow parents, teachers or neighbors.
When all three services went dark Monday, it was a stark reminder of the power and reach of Facebook, which owns the photo-sharing and messaging apps.
Around the world, the breakdown at WhatsApp left many at a loss. In Brazil, the messaging service is by far the most widely used app in the country, installed on 99% of smartphones, according to tech pollster Mobile Time.
WhatsApp has become essential in Brazil to communicate with friends and family, as well as for a variety of other tasks, such as ordering food. Offices, various services and even the courts had trouble making appointments, and phone lines became overwhelmed.

Hundreds of thousands of Haitians in their homeland and abroad fretted over the WhatsApp outage.
Many of the country’s more than 11 million people depend it to alert one another about gang violence in particular neighborhoods or to talk to relatives in the U.S. about money transfers and other important matters. Haitian migrants traveling to the U.S. rely on it to find each other or share key information such as safe places to sleep.
Nelzy Mireille, a 35-year-old unemployed woman who depends on money sent from relatives abroad, said she stopped at a repair shop in the capital of Port-au-Prince because she thought her phone was malfunctioning.
“I was waiting on confirmation on a money transfer from my cousin,” she said. “I was so frustrated.”
“I was not able to hear from my love,” complained 28-year-old Wilkens Bourgogne, referring to his partner, who was in the neighboring Dominican Republic, buying goods to bring back to Haiti. He said he was concerned about her safety because of the violence in their homeland.
“Insecurity makes everyone worry,” he said.
In rebel-held Syria, where the telecommunication infrastructure has been disrupted by war, residents and emergency workers rely mostly on internet communication.
Naser AlMuhawish, a Turkey-based Syrian doctor who monitors coronavirus cases in rebel-held territory in Syria, said WhatsApp is the main communication method used with over 500 workers in the field.
They switched to Skype, but WhatsApp works better when internet service is shaky, he said. If there had been an emergency such as shelling that he needed to warn field workers about, there could have been major problems, he said.
"Luckily this didn’t happen yesterday during the outage,” he said.
But hospitals treating COVID-19 patients in the region were thrown into panic. They lost contact with oxygen suppliers who have no fixed location and are normally reached via WhatsApp. One hospital sent staff member searching for oxygen at nearly two dozen facilities, said Dr. Fadi Hakim of the Syrian American Medical Society.
In Lima, Peru, the breakdown complicated dental technician Mary Mejia’s job. Like most Peruvian medical workers, she uses WhatsApp for a multitude of tasks, including scheduling appointments and ordering crowns.
“Sometimes the doctor will be working on a patient and I need to contact a technician for job,” she said. “To have to step away and make a phone call? It trips us up. We’ve become so accustomed to this tool.”
Millions of Africans use WhatsApp for all their voice calls, so “people felt they were cut off from the world,” said Mark Tinka, a Ugandan who heads engineering at SEACOM, a South Africa-based internet infrastructure company.
Read:Whistleblower: Facebook chose profit over public safety
Many Africans also use WhatsApp to connect with relatives in other countries. Tinka’s stepdaughter lives in Caldwell, Idaho, and lost her father on Sunday, but could not speak with her family back in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania, to arrange travel for the funeral.
“It’s amazing just how little folks understand the impact of three or four content companies on the utility of the Internet,” Tinka said.
Facebook said the outage was due to an internal error related to a “configuration change” but gave no details.
The outage came amid a crisis at Facebook, accused by a whistleblower on “60 Minutes” and on Capitol Hill of profiting from hate and division and suppressing research showing that Instagram contributes to body-image problems, eating disorders and thoughts of suicide in young women.
For small businesses, the outages meant hundreds or thousands of dollars in lost revenue.
Andrawos Bassous is a Palestinian photographer in the Israeli-occupied West Bank whose Facebook page has more than 1 million followers. He has worked with companies including Samsung and Turkish Airlines to create social media content. He said the social media blackout meant he was unable to book appointments or share videos online for companies that employ him.
“Imagine if you promised one of the companies you work for to share their product at a specific time and there is a blackout,” Bassous said.
Sarah Murdoch runs a small Seattle-based travel company called Adventures with Sarah and relies on Facebook Live videos to promote her tours. She estimated the breakdown cost her thousands of dollars in bookings.
“I’ve tried other platforms because I am wary of Facebook, but none of them are as powerful for the type of content I create,” Murdoch said. As for her losses, “it may only be a few people, but we are small enough that it hurts.”
Heather Rader runs How Charming Photography in Linton, Indiana. She takes photographs for schools and sports teams and makes yard signs with the photos. She has her own website but said parents and other customers mostly try to reach her through social media.
She said she might have lost three or four bookings for photo sessions at $200 a client.
“A lot of people only have a specific window when they can do ordering and booking and things like that,” she said. “If they can’t get a direct answer, they go to someone else.”
Read: Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram suffer worldwide outage
Tarita Carnduff of Alberta, Canada, said she connects with other parents on Facebook just about every day, and the outage drove home for her how crucial that support is.
“As a parent with special needs kids, it is the only space I found others in similar positions,” she said. “There’s a lot of us that would be lost without it.”
But for others, the breakdown led them to conclude they need less Facebook in their lives.
Anne Vydra said she realized she was spending too much free time scrolling and commenting on posts she disagreed with. She deleted the Facebook app on Tuesday.
“I didn’t want it to come back,” said Vydra, who lives in Nashville, Tennessee, and does voiceover work. She added: “I realized how much of my time was wasted.”

Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Lite Review
Design
The Xiaomi Note 10 Lite is a well-built premium phone that weighs 209g and has a body of 165.8 x 76.7 x 8.8 mm dimension. It features a glass front and back, as well as an aluminum frame, which makes the phone somewhat heavier but also more durable. On the rear, there is a 3D curved glass that makes the phone comfortable to grip despite its smoothness.
Additionally, there is a tiny camera hump that minimizes jitter on a flat surface. In addition, the cameras are housed within and vertically aligned, as is the Quad-LED flash. Additionally, the Note 10 Lite supports NFC for a quick and secure payment option.
Read: Xiaomi Redmi 10 Prime Review: Is it worth it?
The Glacier White version of the phone has a silky and smooth feel with gradient reflecting hues. Other than the Glacier White, the phone also comes in Aurora Blue, Interstellar Black, and Champagne Gold.
Display
From the front, the phone provides a premium look for its 3D curved edges on the screen's sides. It has a 6.47-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a pixel resolution of 1080 x 2340 with ~395 ppi density. The water drop notch adds additional bezels to the phone, but it is proportionately placed on the display. The colors are stunning; they provide us with brighter hues, deep blacks, and excellent contrast.
Additionally, the display supports HDR10, which is ideal for enjoying media and watching motion pictures. Additionally, the screen is scratch-resistant even without the included screen protector due to the Gorilla Glass 5 coating on the screen.

Although the angle of the curve is not too steep, it is nevertheless susceptible to inadvertent contact. The screen is AMOLED, which means it consumes less power, and the Mi Note 10 Lite also has a dark mode to maximize battery life.
Rear Cameras
The Redmi Note 10 lite’s cameras are known for their quick focusing and smooth shots. It bestows a premium feel to the device in daily use.
The primary camera captures crisp, well-balanced images with 95 percent true-to-life color reproduction. By activating both the HDR and AI enhancement features, balanced exposure and enhanced colors are achieved. Additionally, the 48MP wide lens provides tactile crispness. Users can also capture adequate 2X images with correct color tone since it utilizes the primary sensor for hybrid zoom; however, zooming farther is unreliable and produces a lot of noise due to the lack of a telephoto lens.

The next camera is an 8MP ultrawide. It tends to overexpose at times and exhibits chromatic aberration. Users just have to manage exposure and dial it down a little to make it slightly underexposed or to 0 exposure value to correct it.
Although the Redmi Note 10 Lite only has a 5MP macro lens, it has an autofocus mechanism, which enables photographers to get a close look at tiny objects without risking a blurry picture. The 2MP depth lens is the last lens on the rear. It detects depth via the depth sensor and provides a more realistic separation of the backdrop from the subject. The primary camera can retain videos up to 4K resolution at 30 frames per second. Less video quality will improve.
Front Lens
The 16MP selfie camera is ideal for portrait pictures because it captures excellent contrast without sacrificing detail in dark areas. It also gives a realistic skin tone hue, and unlike other manufacturers', it does not employ excessive smoothing, resulting in a more than attractive natural image. If users get dissatisfied with your look, beauty and cosmetic changes may help.

Performance and Software
The Redmi Note 10 Lite is powered by a Qualcomm SM7125 Snapdragon 720G processor and has an 8nm design. This implies that not only the display saves electricity but also the chipset. The chipset has six low-power cores and two high-performance cores. The only aspect to worry about is the device's capacity for storage expansion. Almost certainly, this phone will be extensively used in all areas, including gaming, photography, and media. This implies it will need more capacity since users will be storing games, movies, and, more often than not, photo and video images taken with this phone. However, there are many methods to clear up your storage if it becomes full, like uploading your data to the cloud or transferring them from an external storage device.
The Redmi Note 10 Lite is powered by Android 10.0 and MIUI 11. The skin is very substantial, but it includes some interesting animations and provides a wealth of customization and options inside the program. Among them is the Game Turbo, which improves gaming capabilities by lowering latency and increasing performance. As a result, you'll have a stress-free gaming experience.

Battery and Charging
The phone performs well in endurance tests. The battery takes almost 8 hours and 13 minutes to die after a heavy video streaming or gaming session, which is a very decent battery life for a phone with a 1080p screen.
In terms of everyday use, the Redmi Note 10 Lite's 5020mAh battery could last a few days. Following that, it comes with a 18W fast charging, a big battery, and a little longer charging time than rivals. And, as previously mentioned, the Redmi Note 10 Lite can be completely charged in about 2 hour and 30 minutes. Due to the size of the battery, the charging time is reasonable.
