This Mac can’t connect to FaceTime because of a problem

THIS IS NOT MY PROBLEM IT IS APPLE. Every so often all of my devices do this. 2 desktops 2 macbooks 2 spyphones and an ipad. IT IS NOT A PROBLEM AT ALL I SUSPECT it is just THEM DEMANDING I IDENTIFY MYSELF AGAIN. I would like APPLE to get out of MY LIFE. I will tell them if I Have a problem. IF ANYONE can tell me how to get RID of Apple please tell me.

If they are all doing this at the same time you can see if it is an issue with Apple's servers, though I have to say I have never ever seen this message myself. Use this link to check the status of Apple’s various services and servers —>
