A strange and macabre bug on Facebook suddenly started to display a message on the user profile informing their friends and their families that the user has died.
The news was given by Business Insider and states that a specific bar appears above their profile listing specific users:
We hope people who love [Username] feel consolation with the thoughts they share to remember and glorify their lives.
The message also includes one link to a form Facebook where you can inform the company about the death of the user.
The Bug does not seem to affect everyone and it is unclear at this time how widespread it is or what is causing it. The Business Insider reports that he saw the message in question on CEO Mark Zuckerberg's account, but when we visited, we couldn't find anything relevant. In fact, we haven't been able to find any "fake dead" so far, and that seems to be a problem that doesn't affect the platform globally.
Explanations of the bug have not been provided by Facebok, but we are soon expected to know exactly what has happened. We hope, however, that we did not bother them, since one day we had written an article about the possibility that you have to tell Facebok how to do it with your account after your death.
