This whay Facebook changed its name to "Meta"
Facebook during the year 2021 month 10 happened to him what has not happened to him since he founded the company, an incident that destroyed his reputation in the world, Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram shut down for more than 6 hours in the world, and this process has caused a very big problem for Facebook users, especially merchants and those who depend on the benefits of the Facebook platform.
The reason why Facebook changed its name to Meta is not known one hundred percent, but this change happened after Facebook was suspended for more than 6 hours, and the second reason was also the rumors about it by a former employee of the Facebook platform that its only concern is to earn money from the Internet in various ways and that it was immoral, and it was also said that the platform had been hacked, which does not bode well.
But the second question: why did WhatsApp and Instagram also stop at the same time? The reason is that Facebook's services are not separate from WhatsApp and Instagram, and it was said that it had already been
The services of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp experienced a sudden interruption of service during the year 2021, the month of 10 Monday, and this interruption affected all users of social sites around the world, and because of this, Facebook shares fell by 5.72%. after the disruption of both the site's services and the services of the Instagram and WhatsApp platforms, and precisely at It is 2:37 am, US time.
Facebook, the global social media giant, announced Thursday that it has changed its name to Meta (Eric Risberg/AP).
Facebook change its name to meta?
Many social media users are wondering about the meaning of the name "Meta" which will soon appear on Facebook. The real meaning of the name meta is in ancient Greek and means "after", to show that "additional things must be built". .
This name was not added at random, Mark Zuckerberg knows what he is doing, and the fact that this new name is in line with his policy of creating an integrated virtual world based on a three-dimensional technology known as Metaverse.
The Facebook company revealed in one of the videos its new name with 3D technology, and as he mentioned, the word "Metaverse" means "Metaverse" between the words "Meta" and "Universe" in English, which means "the superuniverse", and it is a kind of digital alternative to the world.The material is accessible online.
These are the reasons that prompted the director of Facebook to change the name, but the second reason, mentioned by many employees and the general public, is the scandal revealed by "Francis Hogan", the former head of the civil integrity team at the site, and in fact as an experience on my part that Facebook has committed many violations, including, as mentioned by "Francis Hogan", fueling ethnic violence in Ethiopia and Myanmar, and the silence of the site about this and other acts, and the second thing is privacy and its interest in money more than users.
The shape of the Facebook logo, as he mentioned, will change from the white letter "F" with a blue background behind, to the word Meta and next to a sign similar to the sign "infinity" in blue.
The sign of infinity means infinite (in English: infinity) means "that which is infinite", "infinite" or "unlimited" is used in many different concepts, but they all have one idea: "there is no end"
Facebook META
The sign presented by the head of Facebook is very convincing as if he had orchestrated this process, and that the suspension of Facebook for a period of 7 hours wanted by the company itself, because the idea of this sign with 3D technology, known as Metaverse, can not be achieved in a month or two, especially since the new name of Facebook Meta logo is identical to the 3D, and this means that something new can always be created, existing things can always be developed , and they are constantly updated according to reality.
Facebook vs Meta
Here, some people will ask, will a new account be created in Meta? How will the Facebook domain be transformed into a "meta" domain? And how is the case for those who run advertising campaigns on the Facebook platform? What is the status of the links you have shared on the sites? And many questions asked by Facebook users.
In fact, there is no clarification, but the process is simply that there is a so-called redirection of links, we say, for example, you wrote facebook.com, you will be redirected to meta.com and the same applies to all links, and often even people who will conduct advertising campaigns, there will be no changes Often.
The most difficult thing is that if the application "Meta" works in advanced Android systems and the new version, it will be an obstacle for a large number of users.
