Not relevant to the primary election in any way, but this has been more than annoying to me already.

We have a small livestock operation, and won an online auction late last night for a pig about four hours away. Facebook was the only listed means of contacting the person, and we were planning on driving to pick it up this morning.

Now I get to re-arrange my day today to deal with that, and will probably have to take a PTO day from work to drive there later in the week.

Real businesses are in fact impacted by Facebook being down - including those not based around Facebook and that you might never expect.
