Editing the hosts file to add one of the IP addresses above is straightforward, but to access Facebook, it's crucial to back up the hosts file. This step is vital as sometimes saving the hosts file may not be possible for various reasons. In such cases, look into how to fix issues preventing the hosts file from being saved, ensuring normal Facebook access.
If you're unable to find a solution for accessing Facebook with the hosts file as of May 2017, or if Facebook is blocked, there are alternative methods to ensure access, such as using firewall-bypassing software like Hotspot Shield, DNS Jumper, or Ultra VPN networks, and browsers like CocCoc. Particularly, the CocCoc browser from Vietnam is a robust option that provides quick and stable access to Facebook, even when blocked.
Just like in May, if your ISP blocks Facebook in June, consult the June 2017 Facebook hosts file list for ways to access Facebook without the need for third-party software installations.
