      This is actually quite weird. I used Pesbuk for a good while on FP2 16.04 stable OTA-12 with no issues whatsoever. And suddenly it stopped working. I reinstalled it, wiped the cache, rebooted the phone, tried different provided addresses to reach facebook - to no avail. All I get is a blank screen. At first I thought it might be related to my recent installation of uAdblock, but disabling it doesn't change anything. Then I decided to file an issue: https://github.com/kugiigi/pesbuk-app/issues/19
      As you can see, fb doesn't open in Morph either. Now, from what I get from @kugiigi and my own experiments, it must come from the phone, or some part of UT... So the question is: are there any FP2 and/or french users who are having the same problem ?

        @Emphrath Yes. Pesbuk doesn't work for like 2 week at least on my N5. Today 9Gag won't let me use it no more unless I log through google or facebook. [Edit: 9Gag works again, apparently you don't have to select Google, but instead Browser, and it has a Chrome browser icon, but it actually opens in Morph........................] So... I think Google and Facebook wants something and UT doesn't give them that so thay restrict access to their services. But is just my theory, I think there are others more capable to explain why is so. I think there was already a topic related to that, or at least whatsapp...

          @Emphrath You can see that for example if you open Onion and look for a facebook profile or page. You'll be able to see the page because now you have a different IP. Of course, you'll have to login further...
          Edit: and expect facebook in another language, but from my experience are only european languages....

            @C0n57an71n well your theory doesn't hold since @kugiigi doesn't have a problem connecting

              @Emphrath You are in France? I'm in Austria. What country is @kugiigi in?
              Found it: Phillippines?

                I've tryied on Morph, but I get connection error. When using Onion, DdGo showed results for Germany, although I am in Austria. Facebook works though, even not logged.
                Might have to do with UT, might have to do with the campaign against fake-news and fake accounts, might have to do with EU GDPR..., have no clue...

                  I think that will clear a little bit the situation, but on the other hand, what did you expected when you took the red pill and choosed privacy? :)))) *Joke

                    Still working on my OP3, Pesbuk and Sailbook. Though I did hsve to log back in and reset password due to using a site that was not Facebook and this was a phishing attack. Think your going to see more and more of this. It's not ours must be an attack.

                      I confirm that Sailbook works very well right now. (Nexus 5 / OTA 13 stable / Switzerland)

                        @stanwood well sailbook doesn't work either. an attack ? what do you mean ? that my phone redirects to a fake site that pesbuk wouldn't recognize ? how could this happen ? By the way my phone has shown some strange behavior these last days, it might be related: during charge (system offline) the battery logo started stuttering, then when I started UT it went black as if locked and was fully unresponsive. I rebooted it and then the UI was duplicated !!!! All the buttons up there (data, notifications, battery and so on) were also at the bottom of my phone - and I had to reboot again... finally, this: in the openstore, next to "Installed applications" i've got a “(%1)" !! @C0n57an71n are you experiencing any of this ??

                          @Emphrath No, nothing like this. Sporadic bugs, but nothing out of the ordinary. I never used Sailbook and now I can't confirm since I've deleted my Fb account .

                            @Emphrath If you mean what I put. The official Facebook app/login was telling me I had used an unofficial site to login so was /could be a victim of a phishing attack. Not that there is anything wrong with anything from UT or Ubports just to be clear. More and more often I find that if the app is not theirs (Facebook or whoever) they say you have been or are likely to have been tricked and log you out and require a change of password.
                            Now you can see that as a security feature or a subtle attempt to keep you using the official apps etc.

                              @Lakotaubp Oh yeah, this -since I use facebook on UT I had to change my password a thousand times ^^ I get this. But this is different.

                                @Emphrath Did you try to erase your account from your app and set it again? Maybe reinstall the application. Looks like a wrong account/certificate link...

                                      Sorry I didn't read everything so it might be redundant.
                                      Do you have uAdBlock ? Some list prevent access to social media that might be it.

                                        @AppLee I disabled it and it doesn't change a thing. Frankly I'm starting to believe it's related to the other bugs I'm experiencing these days (among which huge inexplicable battery drops) - I'll format the phone (without wipe) and see what happens

                                          I really think it's related to the fact that you are redirected to fr-fr.facebook.com.
                                          I believe Facebook works in Onion Browser because it's using Tor which is a bit similar to VPN wherein you are detected to be in a different country than the one you are actually in.

                                            For me, it has nothing to do with FB. None of my social apps work, from twitter to reddit. They all stop dead in their tracks with a "connection refused" error message. I checked ufw, it's disabled. I haven't a clue, nor, apparently, does anyone else.
