I'm kinda disappointed I don't see this working for my profile or any of my friends. I wanted a screenshot or 20 :(
"Facebook did not immediately respond to a request for comment, likely because everyone there is dead."
I love a good line like this at the end of a blog, it just kills me.

Hehe, that line is priceless.
It seems truth is indeed stranger than fiction sometimes.

Something tells me this actually isn't very widespread and is just another case of The Verge dredging the bottoms for clickbait.
It appeared to be a short term bug. Everyone on my feed was seeing it, and I saw it on every friend I checked. But 10 minutes later it was done.
I'm sure some engineer frantically watched a "roll back" continuous integration process run for several minutes, while his coworkers played the GoT "Shame!" video over and over and threw things at him.

Perhaps. But it happened to both my account and my sister's account.
"He died how he lived—on Facebook."
I thought we'd be safe at least until January.
Talk about Facebook Live. Now Facebook Dead. Product innovation at FB is crazy good
WTF! I'm put in stasis for 18 months and now my computer tells me everybody's dead.
I know a lot of people are down about trump winning but I don't think it will be that bad.
I disabled my account yesterday because I've come to the conclusion nothing on facebook adds value to my life and I'd rather not hand a treasure trove of data to our forthcoming glorious leader so I am going to miss this bug... :-/
Maybe Facebook knows something we don't...
Saw this a little bit before it was reported. Thought it was some bizarre Veteran's Day memorial.
Can confirm this is happening. Two of my friends that are actively commenting on FB are marked as dead. Weird.
