Facebook went down for hours, which also means Instagram, WhatsApp, etc., were also down.

And because everyone turned to Twitter for entertainment, it went down momentarily too. There’s nothing you can trust on.

Conspiracy theories arose, and many wondered what (or who) was to blame. We were shocked to find out it was none other than the solo artist and entrepreneur Eric Nam himself.
He confessed on Twitter yesterday that it was indeed him who “broke the internet,” as it happened while attempting to upload a teaser for his new single.
I was gonna tease my new single today…. But it seems like it broke the internet as it was uploading…. Sry

Coincidence? Clearly not.
Determined to make things right and give us the teaser NamNation deserves, he vowed to get the internet back to its normal state.
hold up… im gonna find a way to release it today.. and fix the internet…

About five hours later, all seemed to be right in the world again (not really, but at least we could use social media again)… And Eric posted his official comeback announcement as promised, even being able to post across all social platforms!
He also returned to Twitter to confirm that, yes, it was also he who “fixed the internet” despite earlier being the same culprit for breaking it.
I fixed the internet btw https://t.co/uPHOtVVLPz

Everyone, say “thank you, Eric Nam,” for fixing the internet.
You can look forward to Eric Nam’s new single “I Don’t Know You Anymore” (IDKYA), which will be released on October 15. It is available for pre-save now, which is the streaming equivalent of a pre-order. Support the now fully independent artist!
