Following anti-regime protests taking place in the nation, Libyan officials have begun cutting off access to Facebook, and the whole Internet intermittently, in the country's capital.
Hundreds of reports coming out of the country say Facebook is completely baned, while connections to other sites, especially social networking, were painfully slow.
It is unclear how citizens outside of the capital are faring.
80 people have died this week in Libya after anti-government demonstrations began on Tuesday.
Libyan authorities have also begun rejecting entrance visas, keeping foreign journalists out of the nation.
Ruler Muammar Gaddafi has been in power since 1969.
