I don't see why a solar storm would mess up some websites like facebook but not the entire internet

Yeah you're right. It has to have been human-caused to only affect certain big websites, but not most of all websites on the internet.

We are at the low point in the eleven-year sunspot cycle so solar storms are very unlikely. BTW, Apple's Messenger seems to be working just fine.
