OK, found the original Tweet by @jgrahamc, the CTO of Clouflare, so now
it is a reliable source...

I would say that this is more likely some kind of attack rather than
an error by FB engineers.

Somebody on Twitter said that the CEO of Cloudflare said that all of
Facebook's BGP routes "had been withdrawn", but that Tweet wasn't

go further than just DNS for Facebook properties.
